Weather: Temps 9C-13C. Robust WNW winds throughout. Variable clouds. Raptor Observations: A modest flight -- perhaps due to too much W in the wind and precipitation in the early morning to the east. Non-raptor Observations: eBird list here: https://ebird.org/checklist/S280545715 Predictions: S/SW flow and possible rain will probably make for few raptors. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Chris Burris ([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.
