Predictions:
Back to business! Temps in mid-60's to mid-70's. Cloudy to start the day
and changing to partly cloudy around noon. West winds at 8-12 mph. After
two days of rain and low clouds, birds should be backed up and raring to
go.

The daily count at Mt Watatic has ended, but we'd appreciate reports from
anyone who goes up tomorrow. Please send your reports with totals for each
hour to Brian Rusnica at <14hawks8owls...>
