Visitors:
37 visitors including a couple renewing their vows on the 25th wedding
anniversary.
Weather:
No view in the early am due to low fog. Very hazy, hot and sticky with
limited visibility all day..unable to even see past Crotched Mt. Few
clouds. Wind increased thru the day, S to SW.
Raptor Observations:
Of the birds that were seen-they were relatively low. Not much movement.
Three juve sharpies visited and mobbed the owl repeatedly, playing and
vocalizing-possibly a family group judging by behavior. They were not
counted as migrants. Also special attention is given to merlins and their
behavior to try to prevent counting residents.
Non-raptor Observations:
3 chimney swifts, black-capped chickadee, golden crowned kinglet,
red-breasted nuthatch, dark-eyed junco, blue jay, yellow-rumped warbler,
American redstart, pine warbler, cedar waxwing, common raven
Good push of butterflies..monarchs, mourning cloak, red-spotted purple,
plus copius darner sp.
Predictions:
Rain predicted for most of the day and part of sunday. As soon as this
weather system lifts, the birds are gonna fly!
