September 3rd - Hot & Humid!!!

The birds that we saw fly by today were just above the trees making IDing them very easy. The humidity today was absolutely insane, I thought that I was having water poured on me all day long! Speaking of water, just before the rain came in the afternoon, our first Peregrine Falcon flew through the centre of the park. As the storm clouds moved east towards Pickering it brought an end to the bird watching for the day.
