Weather:
The morning had some scattered showers with east winds at 10-15mph. There
were a couple hours with no precipitation, but then it started to sprinkle
again. The cloud cover was very low and visibility was limited. Temps were
in the 30s.

Raptor Observations:
The only raptors seen today were the local Bald Eagle, American Kestrel,
and Northern Harrier.

Non-raptor Observations:
Not much was flying around except a few Tree Swallows.

Predictions:
Tomorrow�s weather: Mostly cloudy in the morning becoming partly sunny in
the afternoon. Temps will reach a high of 69F. Winds will be SW at 20-30mph
with some stronger gusts possible. The winds will be strong which could
limit the number of birds on the move. However, the wind direction is good,
so I am expecting a decent flight.
