Braddock Bay
Rochester, New York, USA
Weather:
Today had clear skies, temps in the 40s, and NE winds at 10-15mph.
Raptor Observations:
It was a very quiet day at the hawkwatch. The only birds migrating today were 2 Turkey Vultures, 2 Sharp-shinned Hawks, and one Bald Eagle. Fingers crossed that tomorrow will have a few more birds after the rain!
Non-raptor Observations:
A Magnolia Warbler was feeding in the trees by the parking lot.
