Hello intrepid birding fellows!
Does anyone have any ideas or speculation as to what effect Hurricane Isabel
will have (if any) on Wings Over Water in a few weeks?
I took down my feeders yesterday morning and was chastised profusely for
doing so by quite a few bedraggled and angry birds, so I put them back up
around 10:00 am. There was then a constant stream of activity until about
4:00 pm when the winds hit their heaviest of very (then) thankful birds
who huddled in the lee of the wildly swinging feeders to snatch a few bites.
I debated as to whether this was a good thing or not (was I putting them
more at risk by encouraging them to come out?), but under the circumstances
I'm glad I could help. :-)
