Observation start time: 08:45:00 Observation end time: 14:00:00 Total observation time: 5.25 hours
Official Counter: Chris Smith, Maili Waters
Observers: Bridget Watts, Daena Ford, Linda Bender, Luke Seitz
Visitors: Two men with their dogs stopped to say hello.
Weather: Overcast and cloud covered most of the day with some blue sky appearing occasionally. Wind was WNW, gusty at times. Thankfully no rain today!
Raptor Observations: The day started very slowly until the 3rd hour when blue sky areas appeared. Three different lines of birds showed up: over the west spit end, straight overhead and another over the parkway. Luckily we had 3 sets of eyes to pick them out as they passed very high above us. The 4th hour, most of the flight was straight overhead.
Non-raptor Observations: An unknown duck flew quickly by us.
Predictions: Low chance of rain. Wind WNW again, but could bring a decent flight in about noontime. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Daena D. Ford (<dford...>) Braddock Bay information may be found at: http://www.bbrr.org/
