Observation start time: 09:00:00 Observation end time: 09:30:00 Total observation time: 0.5 hours
Official Counter: Observers: Jon Skinner
Visitors: Nothing noted
Weather: The mountaintop was covered in clouds most of the morning. Rain was expected in the early afternoon.
Raptor Observations: The summit was clear as Jon Skinner hiked up in morning but clouds closed in as he arrived. He contacted Eric who had been watching from the Sterling airport down below. Eric noticed that the cloud cover was moving lower, so Jon left after 30 minutes without seeing any raptors. Thanks for the effort!
Non-raptor Observations: Jon saw some Evening Grosbeaks fly by on his way down the mountain.
Predictions: Rain is expected all day Monday, so we won't conduct a watch. ======================================================================== Report submitted by ERIC MUELLER (<ericmueller1912...>) Wachusett Mountain information may be found at: http://www.massbird.org/emhw
