Weather: Rain throughout the morning, slowing down in the afternoon. Clouds gave some surreal views from the platform. High stratus cloud ceiling coupled with cloud inversion in the valleys. The Antrim windmills were poking out of fog into the sky to catch the light E winds. Count stopped early when steady rain moved in.
On this day in Pack history... "2023: Sometimes good birds come if you just start talking about them. Katrina Fenton: ""Glen mentioned Snow Geese this morning, and lo and behold, one was mixed in with a flock of Canada Geese this afternoon. This was the first Snow Goose to be seen at the hawk watch since 2015. It was a good day overall for waterbird migration, but the wind was a bit too brisk for songbirds."" ======================================================================== Report submitted by Caroline Fegley (<cgfegley...>) Pack Monadnock Raptor Migration Observatory information may be found at: www.harriscenter.org
