Weather: Drizzle and fog until about 10:45 AM. The fog lifted and the rest of the day was partly cloudy with moderate northwest winds. Temperatures eventually reaching 46 degrees. Excellent visibility most of the day.
Raptor Observations: 21 Golden Eagles throughout the day. All but one needed the spotting scope to identify due to their being so far out in the valley. Many more goldens probably passed through, but were not counted or identified because of the time it took to id each bird. At one point, 5 Golden Eagle adults were kettling.
Bald Eagles: 12:50 Adult, 1:40 Adult, 2:16 Sub III
Non-raptor Observations: American Crow, Black-capped Chickadee, Cedar Waxwings, Common Raven, Downy Woodpecker, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Tufted Titmouse, White-Breasted Nuthatch
Predictions: A few passing clouds, otherwise generally sunny. High near 50F. Winds W at 15 to 25 mph. Higher wind gusts possible. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Brian M. Wargo (<brianwargo...>)
