Weather:
The morning started out with some scattered sprinkles that ended around
9:30am. The rest of the day was overcast with temps in the low 30s. Winds
were light, starting as NW but shifting to east and then to NE.
Raptor Observations:
There were only three migrating raptors today. The first was an American
Kestrel, the second was a Merlin, and the third was an immature Bald Eagle.
Non-raptor Observations:
Other birds around the park today included a small flock of White-winged
Scoter, a Red-throated Loon, and 6 Horned Grebes on the bay.
Predictions:
Tomorrow�s weather: Cloudy with occasional rain showers. Temps will reach a
high around 45F. Winds will be SW in the morning at 10-15mph, but shifting
later in the day to NNW. Depending on the amount of rain in the morning,
there could be some raptors moving in the gaps. I expect the flight, if
there is any, to shut down in the afternoon when the winds shift north.
