September 20 [Day 1] (Cliff Hansen and Joel Duncan) Bad weather persisted in the area for the sixth straight day with all ridges and peaks remaining obscured throughout the day. The temperature ranged from 3C to 5C, winds were N light to moderate and cloud cover was 100% low stratocumulus. Light rain and drizzle developed into heavy rain, turning to snow at 1530 at which point the observers wisely retreated. Not surprisingly no migrant raptors were seen, but a resident Osprey was observed at Lorette Ponds on the way in. Passerines near the site included 30 Yellow-rumped Warblers, 2 Wilson’s Warblers and 8 American Robins. 4.25 hours (4.25) No migrant raptors (0)
