Bald Eagle Mountain - Eagle Field State College, Pennsylvania, USA Daily Raptor Counts: Nov 15, 2026 -------------------------------------------------------------------
Like Friday, Nov 13, with moderate NW winds, GEs were high and mostly over the center of the ridge, higher than I would expect with an updraft of that strength. I suspect that there is extra umph to the uplift with such winds.
10-12 was the busiest time, apparently a continuation of yesterday, then it slowed to 4/hr in the afternoon. Most came over the center of BE Mt, many high, with some over the NW slope of BE Mt.
BE: 2 Ad, 2 Imm
Non-raptor Observations: Tundra Swan-11, C. Loon-2, RB Gull-4
Predictions: Monday forecast: NW 8-9 mph. Since we presumably haven't seen the 49 GE that Franklin Mt reported Saturday, I expect some of them Monday-Tuesday with lighter winds. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Nick Bolgiano (<nickbolgiano...>)
