Official Counter: Fred Harrington
Observers:
Visitors: none
Weather: Count period started out with light South winds which increased in speed over the count. The first two hours consisted of light rain on and off, but still allowed a pretty good flight for the 10 am hour. The flight over the main drive entrance to the cemetery greatly diminished as the light rain ended and the winds gusted and became more westerly.
Raptor Observations: The main component were the broadwings and some turkey vultures.
Non-raptor Observations: nothing notable
Predictions: Cooler and windier, possible afternoon showers. WSW winds could provide a good flight. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Frederick Harrington (<harrinfe...>)
