Weather:
Decent w/sw winds went west then switched to lake breeze around 12:40 dst. Birds re-established a flight line inland a bit but still moving for a bit.

Mississippi Kite was found by Luke Seitz flying low over the parkway and inside to the SW. Decent Bald Eagle flight.

Non-raptor Observations:


Predictions:
Scattered morning showers and thunderstorms. Winds W/SW are good if the showers fall apart Eagles and another kite?
