*Weather:*
Wind W 5-8 mph, sky mostly cloudy, temp -4:-2C
*Raptor Observations:*
GE(6): 1157 Ad, 1221 Ad, 1234 Ad, 1408 Ad, 1447 Unk, 1457 Unk BE: Ad-1,
Imm-4 With light W wind, the GEs were very high, similar to 3 other recent
days. At 1356, an Unk GE flew from BE Mt to the AF foothills and #5 above
did the same thing in the same area, so only the 2nd of these was counted.
The 1408 GE also flew to the foothills from a different place.
*Predictions:*
Next watch days: Saturday - wind WSW 8-12 mph, but will start around 10;
Sunday - wind WNW 14-16 mph; Monday - wind W 8-11 mph; Friday, Dec 19 -
wind WNW 14-16 mph I anticipate that the two days with higher WNW wind
(Sunday & Friday) will be the best remaining days this season. Visitors
must wear orange to and from watch site Saturday, the last day of deer
hunting.
