Weather: Intermittent cloud cover throughout the day. Winds from the west transitioning to west-northwest, sustained between 5-10mph, with gusts up to 16mph. Partly cloudy to overcast, back to partly cloudy, and some sun and blue skies.
Raptor Observations: Early morning flight line was established from SW to WSW and continued throughout the day, with some good looks at low-flying birds, like the first GOEA of the day. Another good look at an immature AGOS that came through with two SSHAs, and flew fairly low over the lookout. Noted steady, soaring broad wings, and flight distinctive of powerful and stiff wing beats as it was observed flying overhead. What an amazing bird to see!
