Here is the update!
Unfortunately I lost my records from the midday watch, but it was impressive. A couple/few hundred Canada Geese, more Monarch butterflies, and about 15-20 raptors, including Accipiters, a late Broad-winged Hawk, American Kestrels, and falcon sp.
My afternoon watch was good, too. No raptors this time, though.
Migrants/highlights included Canada Goose (estimated 305), Snow Goose (1, first of fall!), blackbird sp (7), and warbler sp (unknown number, small groups and singles headed in all directions).
More Monarch butterflies were seen, too (22).
All in all, a solid day of migration!
