Official Counter: Chuck Root, Craig Hedlund
Observers: Alan Simon, Bob Kelly, Chuck Root, Craig Hedlund
Visitors: Sue Vanasse
Weather: Variable clouds most of the day. Thickened around 1:00 pm. Wind NE all day between 8 and 12 mph.
Raptor Observations: After 1:00, raptors tapered off but vultures became more numerous
Non-raptor Observations: Two Ruby-throated Hummingbird and one Double-crested Cormorant
Predictions: Tomorrow will be cooler and cloudy all day, but low chance of rain. Still NE winds 8 to 12 mph, so maybe they will bring birds like today's winds. Broadwings are starting to move through New England, we should start seeing larger numbers in the next few days. ======================================================================== Report submitted by John Mercer (<mercer1135...>) Rose Tree Park information may be found at: www.rtphawkwatch.org
