Weather:
The morning had some scattered showers with east winds at 10-15mph. There were a couple hours with no precipitation, but then it started to sprinkle again. The cloud cover was very low and visibility was limited. Temps were in the 30s.

Raptor Observations:
The only raptors seen today were the local Bald Eagle, American Kestrel, and Northern Harrier.

Non-raptor Observations:
Not much was flying around except a few Tree Swallows.

Predictions:
Tomorrow�s weather: Mostly cloudy in the morning becoming partly sunny in the afternoon. Temps will reach a high of 69F. Winds will be SW at 20-30mph with some stronger gusts possible. The winds will be strong which could limit the number of birds on the move. However, the wind direction is good, so I am expecting a decent flight.
