Observers: Brenda Tekin
Weather:
Where is the sun?
We were promised "partly" sunny! I would have taken any part! Fog in the
morning and by time I arrived around 11:15 a.m. EST, wind shifted to out
of east pumping in low clouds. Another washout!
We didn't even bother to take weather stats. Humidity level very high,
wind 5-11 km/h out of the east.
Observations:
Only one, upon arrival at 11:15 a.m. EST, a very low sailing Red-tailed
across the parking lot.
Herring Gull - 8 low flying through the gap. Seven non-adult and one adult
for sharp contrast. Close enough to see details of adult's bill.
Predictions:
RAIN!
