Too tired and bleary eyed to upload tonight.
Arrived at tower 8:45 and for a change the first 2 hours reminded me of
the last few years. First BWH rose through fog east of 'the point' at
9:01 (DST) and by 10:00 am spotted 37 BWH's. Then by 11:00 added 84
more, including a decent kettle rising east of the 'rear' west point of
at least 50 + BWH's. Sky cleared by noon and the usual bright blue skies
make spotting impossible. After a long birdless afternoon, including
very few Vultures and Ravens, saw 3 BWH at 4:45 then nothing before I
left at 5:30. Not a single accipiter etc all day.
Details etc at hawkcount.org later tonight or more likely tomorrow, but
I wanted local Bristolbirds subscribers to have the earliest update.
Please come and help Jennifer Saturday and Sunday.
