It was a slow day on the mountain with warm temps. (it certainly doesn't feel
like November) and variable winds, mostly W and SW. We still managed to spot
11 hawks, some of which were extremely high. Clark Hill and Dillard Childress
were on hand to help spot. There were lots of leaf lookers on the parkway
today, but not the record numbers we've seen in past years.
