Lighthouse Point Park, New Haven, 10/14/17, 8:00am-3:30pm - 10 Migrating Hawks. 3 Sharp-shinned Hawk, 2 Cooper’s Hawk, 1 Red-shouldered Hawk, 2 American Kestrel, 1 Merlin, and 1 Peregrine Falcon. Weather refused to cooperate today... overcast sky with a north wind that was too light to push the hawks to the coast I guess.

They are 10 weeks old now and getting huge! Enjoy, Mike Horn https://www.flickr.com/photos/oldebear/sets/72157644126163964/

List, I see that there are now two providers of optical 10 MHz souces. I would appreciate it if someone could give a "laymans" report on cost, MTBF, how they verify there calibration as well as if they will suppliment Cs, H-masers, etc. TIA Perry KM6FQV

Cecilia Marshall, widow of The Honorable Thurgood Marshall Visits Howard University This summer the campus of Howard University was permeated with eager to learn HBCU students from both near and far who were members of the Pre-Health, Pre-Law, and for the first time this summer, Pre- Ph.D. cohorts.

Chester, 10/6: A life-lister for me, today: a yellow-bellied sapsucker working on the bark of our apple tree. (Also a first for our yard.) Other yard visitors included eastern phoebe, eastern towhee, our usual gang of white-throated sparrows, and flicker.

To my surprise, there were 10 great egrets in an large, open swampy area about 15 km west of Owen Sound. 6 of the birds were moving around in the centre of the swamp, and 4 others were roosting in a dead tree on the far side. Directions: Highway 21 west from Owen Sound to Jackson. Turn right, then left, then right, then left on the back roads.
