Official Counter: John Mercer
Observers: Chuck Root, Robin Queenan
Visitors: Paul and Mary Overbeck, Martha, Sarah and Bill.
Weather: A pleasant day, temperatures climbing from the upper 60's to 80. Not as many clouds as forecast but still enough to be useful. Winds were not NW as forecast but mostly N, so day wasn't as good as hoped for.
Raptor Observations: Another slow day. Best hour was two TV getting an early start on migration. The usual locals: a kettle of 15 TV that did not go through, BV, 2 super distant BE, 3 RT put on a show near the end of the shift, 2 juvenile CH and one adult RS
Non-raptor Observations: 10 Canada Geese headed due south. ======================================================================== Report submitted by John Mercer (<mercer1135...>) Rose Tree Park information may be found at: www.rtphawkwatch.org
