[Tweeters] Vaux's Happening again

[Larry Schwitters]

It was down to 46 degrees in Monroe at sunrise this morning.  https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KWAMONRO11

The wee birds had this figured out and had another major sleep in at the Wagner roost with Betsy Parrott documenting 8,000 entering last night. Our project also had 3000 at Selleck and pushing a thousand at JBLM. This has been Vaux’s Happening's best August in the last 14 years. Last year was the worst with Wagner down to zero by September 4 and ending up with only 7444 for the entire migration. Don’t know why, didn’t like it, but didn’t know what to do about it. It seems Mother Nature took care of what ever it was.

Am still worried about things drying up come September.
