Visitors:
Thanks to Tom B for doing a count today.
Weather:
Nice weather for November with temps to a high of 16C but breezy from the
SW all day and a bit of cloud around.
Raptor Observations:
A small flight today of just 144 birds but that did include a couple more
Golden Eagles.
Non-raptor Observations:
Tom mentioned seeing a single Sandhill Crane going past.
Predictions:
Monday looks promising as winds look to go NW though maybe not till late
morning. Upper winds will actually go NW earlier so if the birds are up
higher it might work to bring them to the lake shore.
