We had a total of 8 people visit Green Ridge today to help count passing 
raptors.  We counted from 10:00 to 4:00 for a total of 91 migrating raptors. 
The weather was sunny with light E-SE winds and temperatures in the high 40s 
and low 50s.

In contrast to Wednesday the first three hours were busy and the numbers 
dropped way down through the afternoon.  We will be at the site for the rest of 
the weekend so come up and join us.  I will be at Indian Ford Campground to 
lead people to the site at 9:00.

Today's count was

Turkey Vulture                       7                               Northern 
Harrier                    1
Sharp-shinned Hawk           32                              Cooper's Hawk      
               20
Red-tailed Hawk                  18                              Golden Eagle   
                       1
Unident. Accipiter                 5                               Unident  
Buteo                        6

Lots of birds were way out to the east and high and hard to get a positive ID.
