Returning to normal

A week after Dean, I see the first Broad-winged Hawk since the storm. The smallest of birds - the hummingbirds, the Yellow Warbler - and the larger ones - heron, flycatcher, ani - were all back in evidence soon after the storm had passed. But the magnificent Hawk took it's time.

Actually, it was seeing a postman on Monday this week that I knew we were back to normal here ;)

Steve, Thank you so much for the coverage on the hurricane. My family lives on the island and I was unable to get in contact with anybody for quite a few days. Your website really calmed my nerves in reasuring me that everyone was ok. Thanks again.
