Thursday, January 9th, 2014. Cloudy, but no rain. Just very light mists. I set out all of the raptors to weather and bathe.
Thursday, I made sure all of the raptors were able to weather and I flew two raptors as deterrent flights at the pool and beach area. But, there were no grackles around. I feel that the weather has a lot to do with it. I took hawks around the key in their enclosures for evening flights to deter any roosting on the island. I noted very few grackles across the key and A friend who was in downtown told me that a large number of birds in the mainland area roosting in the trees that evening. So, the grackles are starting to stay inland.
