Migration is picking up. Canada geese, grackles, red-winged black birds, swallows, warblers, and many more are taking flight and heading south. "The Bald Eagles are the ones being counted the most," says Larry Weber.
Take your eyes from the skies and you'll see berries and mushrooms on the ground. And soon enough, acorns and leaves will be joining them - Autumn is just around the corner.
