Bald Eagle Mountain - Eagle Field State College, Pennsylvania, USA Daily Raptor Counts: Oct 20, 2026 -------------------------------------------------------------------
Observation start time: 11:00:00 Observation end time: 15:00:00 Total observation time: 4 hours
Official Counter: Nick Bolgiano
Observers:
Weather: There was a mid-morning wind shift to NNE and then the wind speed picked up significantly around 1100, to 6-10 mph. Wind was most sustained during 1100-1300, then dropped off, as did migrants.
Raptor Observations: GE: 1141 Ad, 1251 Imm, both above the ridge to the south. I thought that we might see 1-2 GE on Saturday, Oct 17, but that day's good wind apparently brought some closer.
BE: 3 Imm
Non-raptor Observations:
Predictions: next watch day: Thursday, with predicted wind NNW 8-9 mph, modest migration expected ======================================================================== Report submitted by Nick Bolgiano (<nickbolgiano...>)
