Weather:
It rain heavily in the morning, and the count was cancelled. Rain turned to
light fog before noon, but drizzle resumed ca. 14:20 hrs. Winds from the
southwest at 11-14 km/hr (up to 8.5 mi/hr). Temperature up to +14C (57F).

Raptor Observations:
No raptors were seen today during a count attempt between noon and 14:30
hrs.

Non-raptor Observations:
One Great Egret, several Bonaparte's and Ring-billed Gulls, Canada Geese
and hybrid Mallards... and that was all.

Predictions:
A mix of sun and clouds, no rain and westerly winds are forecast for
tomorrow. We expect that hawk migrating will resume, likely in late
morning.
