The second week of May has now arrived and with it the peak of migration (which continues to be great for birds with lots of great migration conditions).  I don't have time to go into a lot of details beyond that the birds are back in numbers and every day produces 100+ species, even without being out as much as I want to be.  I have had 160 species so far for the month.  I will post more pictures from the week when I get a chance...for now just a couple from today.
