Quizas los colores de esta foto (y hasta la de las Lechucita) se vean raros. Esto es porque aprendí tarde que para revelar digitalmente una foto que va a ser subida e internet, tenés que hacerlo con el "espacio de color" sRGB.. Algo que no venía haciendo por ignorancia jeje.

A very widespread species, Melospiza melodia.

T & I returned to LEMP on Tuesday (no school). The day's totals were pretty low due to wind direction, but we did actually see 2 official* migrant hawks (a Cooper's hawk and a red-tail)! They only spotted a total of 5 that day, so we saw 40%.

(*Officially counted as migrating, according to the count protocol they use there. Learn more at the Detroit River Hawk Watch web site.)
