Observation start time: 09:30:00 
Observation end   time: 15:30:00 
Total observation time: 6 hours

Official Counter: Gordy Adamski

Observers:        

Weather:
What a difference a day makes. The wind died down considerably, but high
pressure moved in & there were no clouds at all. Temp around 16, humidity
around 33 to 34 all day. You could see quite a ways in both directions as
most of the smog had lifted. 

Observations:
With no clouds it was hard to see the birds. They were not high but could
not be spotted until they were overhead.
