Official Counter: Darrell Smith
Observers:
Visitors: Just some site seers.
Weather: A cool day with low overcast clouds all day with 8-12mph winds from the West & NW.
Raptor Observations: Adult GE's 10:11, 11:22 & 3:52. Imm. GE's 1:34 5 BE's not migrating. I saw 3 Suspected BE's dropping out of the clouds and going north. I didn't see any migrating. I suspect there were other birds going south that I did not see because of the low Cloud cover. All birds seen were relatively low.
The 11:22 GE put down its landing gear as it passed going south and was gliding downward probably seeing a possible meal. A Merlin not migrating going north.
Non-raptor Observations: Many small birds migrating that I could not identify. Several ravens including Nemo. He was very talkative today and helped watch for GE's.
Predictions: Cold and cloudy with WNW winds at 15 to 25 mph. Higher gusts possible. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Darrell Smith (<oleagleye...>)
