Raptor Observations: BE-4 ( 2A, 2I ) PG- 3:18A, 3:20A A slower day than we had hoped for. We had only counted 7 raptors by noon. Raptor movement picked up a bit in the afternoon with most birds high and distant with the exception of our Bird of the Day selection which was the 3:18 adult peregrine that came in close to the ridge, just above eye level in nice light. A gorgeous bird for sure !
