Weather: Valley fog to start that burned off by mid morning. Light and variable winds calm to 7mph. Temps ranged from 51'-74'F. Beneficial cumulous clouds emerged mid-day to create a nice background for spotting Raptors.
Raptor Observations: We had very light Raptor migration movement today. Broad Wings still trying to file thru with a total of 4. We had another 4 UR's today, which could have been a few more Wings. Mid-day, the thermals were excellent as the crew repeatedly watched local Raptors; especially Bald Eagles; climb fast and soar. Local Raptors: BV-2, TV-21, OS-2, BE-6, RS-1, RT-6
Predictions: Showers and thunderstorms predicted for tomorrow. No Watch is planned ======================================================================== Report submitted by Mark Morris (<MDMRemodeling...>) Adams Farm - Athol MA information may be found at: https://massbird.org/emhw/
