Weather:
Today was cloudy with north winds at 10-15mph. Temps were in the low 30s.
Snow flurries started around 1pm, continuing on and off for the rest of the
day.
Raptor Observations:
Despite the north winds, there were 6 brave souls that decided to move
east; 2 Bald Eagles and 4 Turkey Vultures.
Non-raptor Observations:
Duck numbers continue to slowly decrease in the bay. Two Tree Swallows flew
over, fighting the north wind.
Predictions:
Tomorrow�s weather: Partly sunny skies in the morning will give way to
cloudy skies in the afternoon. Temps will reach a high of 42F. Winds will
WNW in the early morning, but switch to WSW in the late morning. The west
winds should encourage some birds to move! I�m hoping the partly sunny
conditions last into the afternoon, which would entice more movement.
Turkey Vultures will probably be the majority of the flight. Wednesday also
looks like it could have a decent number of birds on the move.
