Weather: Winds were just a bit too westerly today and temps have cooled right down with a high to just 5C. Lots of sunshine for the day. Raptor Observations: A slow day because of the winds...but a count was done with a total of just 45 birds. Non-raptor Observations: None reported. Predictions: Winds are predicted to be WSW which will curtail the flight pretty much. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Dave Brown ([email protected]) Hawk Cliff Hawkwatch information may be found at: http://www.ezlink.ca/~thebrowns/HawkCliff/index.htm More site information at hawkcount.org: http://hawkcount.org/siteinfo.php?rsite=392 _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
