Caister and P. Chapman and J. Dowell Weather: All sunshine for the morning with a bit of cloud moving in around noon. A moderate west wind and high of 7. Observations: Not a bad flight today with 5 Golden Eagles thrown in! Predictions: Saturday should be the day! I'd say there's a good chance that tomorrow could be really an amazing day...the winds are supposed to be moderate from the N - NW all day and with nice sunny periods through broken cloud it will make observing everything that much easier. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Dave Brown ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Hawk Cliff Hawkwatch information may be found at: http://www.ezlink.on.ca/~thebrowns/HawkCliff/index.htm Hawk Cliff Hawkwatch: Oldest Hawkwatch in Ontario - since 1931 - located just east of Port Stanley on the cliff overlooking Lake Erie [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.ofo.ca/ontbirdsguide.htm for information on leaving and joining the list.
