Official Counter: Devin Banning

Observers:

Visitors:
None


Weather:
Thin, wispy overhead clouds. Weak NE winds, 5MPH with gusts up to 11MPH. No
Precipitation.

Raptor Observations:
One Sharp-shinned Hawk passed through along the 90. Local Red-tailed Hawk
and adult Bald Eagle were seen.

Non-raptor Observations:
Local Turkey Vultures were playing games today, constantly heading east
over sites 2 and 3, only to double back and head west. One TV was
definitely a migrant, and passed through over the 90 shortly after our one
SS of the day.

Predictions:
Rain all day, South to Southwest winds. We will most likely have a
'no-count' day.
