Cloudy with temperatures decreasing from 44 °F to 37 °F. The summit was
covered in mist for the first couple of hours. The wind blew strong from
the southwest all day.
Raptor Observations:
Migrants consisted of a few Red-tails, two adult Bald Eagles, and one
Turkey Vulture. Local Red-tails were often kiting near North Pack.

One rabbit and several juncos (including the one with two white spots) kept
us company. Purple Finches and robins were occasionally seen.
Predictions:
Tomorrow looks more favorable for migration, with wind from the northwest.
