Observation start time: 08:30:00
Observation end time: 15:00:00
Total observation time: 6.33 hours

Official Counter: Caroline Fegley

Observers: Chuck Carlson, Katrina Fenton, Kevin Murphy, Levi Burford,
Nate Marchessault, Tom Delaney

Visitors:
Very quiet, four people stopped in throughout the day.


Weather:
Light S/SSW winds all day. Overcast with decent visibility, temps 1-3 C
(34-37 F)

Raptor Observations:
A slow day on the raptor front with our first bird at the 1 o'clock hour.
All the good hawkwatching karma was used up this weekend.

Non-raptor Observations:
An American Pipit flew over relatively early, and a small group of Song
Sparrows piqued our interest as they moved through along the treetops. Bird
sound was quiet other than a feisty Red-breasted Nuthatch.

Predictions:
Hopefully more birds! South winds continue, but with much warmer weather
and stronger winds who knows what could happen?
