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. ======================================================================== 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: https://hawkcount.org/siteinfo.php?rsite=392 -- Ontbirds and Birdnews are moderated email Listservs provided by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) as a service to all birders in Ontario.
