Observation start time: 09:30:00 Observation end time: 14:00:00 Total observation time: 4.5 hours
Official Counter: Craig Jackson
Observers:
Weather: Moderate (3-2) winds mostly from the North with some NE and NNE as well, and highest gusts of 13 km/hr; Temperature started at 0° C and barely made 3° before becoming 2° at end of watch; Cloud cover began at 0% and as cirrus clouds moved in from the southwest got as high as 30% before lessening to 20%; throughout watch there were were very few clouds toward the north so I was mostly viewing blue sky.
Raptor Observations: Only one definite migrant - an immature Redtail (interacted with an adult RT as it was soaring, but I don't think the second RT was a migrant. Non-migrating - 1 TV, and at least 2 RT
Non-raptor Observations: Birds - 1 DE Junco
Predictions: Tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday will all have moderate to strong NW winds -- the best conditions for migrants at this site. Since I have an early morning appointment on Friday, I don't expect to be on site until late in the morning. Other days I will try to be on site the entire day ======================================================================== Report submitted by Craig Jackson (<crleja1949...>)
