Official Counter: Chris Pugliese, Tom Bush

Observers: Chris Pugliese

Weather:
A pretty day with sun and clouds. The temperature reached 77°F but SW
winds kept the migrants away.

Raptor Observations:
only 4 migrating raptors spotted: 3 Turkey Vultures and 1 Red-shouldered
hawk.

There were a few local birds around but even they were not spotted in the
afternoon.

Non-raptor Observations:


Predictions:
The winds will shift to NW which hopefully will bring a few raptors. Clouds
should be favorable. Temperatures rising into the 70s. A slight chance of
light rain—we'll believe that when we see it.
