There were thousands migrating this morning. Cape May counts the migrations for about 6 hours a day.

and there are no water birds at all at present. Same at Maryland Western Shore cam, there are the two Osprey on the nest but no other water birds around. Looks deserted. The Maryland Western Shore crew mentioned that another Osprey male arrived to claim that nest but was chased off. He had a leg band.
