Queensbury Visible Migration

                                   A VIS MIG EVENING SKY
                        Hard to pick out the birds in the dark grey background
Any company is appreciated to a vis migger.

Roper Lane.  1700-1815 hrs  Cold S > 4  Cloudy.
Tonights watch proved fruitful thanks to a lunchtime Skype call from DCB to say things were moving.
Spring vis mig always seems livelier after mid day unlike autumn vis mig which is at its best early a.m. although spring watching is much more difficult as the birds are to search for and go through in much smaller numbers.
