We're still in Anchorage and fly to Adak tomorrow. Getting pretty excited. No Big Years for us, but I suspect there will be some out there since this is the best time for spring vagrants, although fall is better. There seem to be about 5 Asian passerine species around the past couple of days. They may be gone, but there is supposed to west winds coming up which may blow some Asian migrants our way. We have our provisions packed. Fortunately, they allow 3 checked bags per person which will include our cooler. Here is a Brambling flock a couple of days ago.

How many vultures can you count? Guess that's why they call it Mt Diablo?

On a different note, I've been doing Golden Eagle monitoring for the forest service here in the Boulder area this spring :-) Here are a few shots I took yesterday afternoon in Boulder Canyon of the single chick with one of the parents getting fed some yummy snake! The nest is a solid 1/4 mile from the observation/photo viewpoint so the shots are reaaallly long, so please forgive the lackluster quality. Great fun to watch the feeding and chick behavior!
