Official Counter: Maili Waters

Observers: Daena Ford, Greg Sanda, Shannon Sanda

Visitors:
7


Weather:
Quite foggy with temps reaching a high of 42F. Winds out of the NNW at
5-10mph. Light rain on and off all day.

Raptor Observations:
Today was another cold, foggy day with very little raptor movement. The
only migrating raptors were 1 Sharp-shinned Hawk and 1 Northern Harrier.

Non-raptor Observations:
Several Caspian Terns were roosting with the gulls on the barrier island.

Predictions:
Tomorrow will be partly cloudy with a high of 54F. Winds WNW at 5-10mph.
Despite the winds having a northerly component, there will hopefully be
some migration. Birds have been backed up by bad weather for a few days so
there should be something on the move.
