I had errands to run in Waynesboro, so I stopped at the Rockfish Gap Hawk Watch for a few hours on my way there. There were several distant, large kettles of migrating Broad-winged Hawks that required a spotting scope to see, but a few of the kettles dispersed with hawks streaming overhead, and a few small kettles formed near the hawk watch site.

Three Bald Eagles put on a good show as well.

There were quite a few Black and Turkey Vultures.

The highlight for me was a fast flying Merlin. Although the photos didn't turn out that well, it was a neat bird to see.

When I wasn't looking for raptors, Ruby-throated Hummingbirds at the feeder were fun to watch.
