October 12 [Day 23] (Joel Duncan) The temperature reached a high of 10C at 1500 from a low of 6C at 0900 and was 7C at 1900, ground winds were SW all day 10-20 gusting 30 km/h, ridge winds were strong SW with gusts reaching 110 km/h after 1500, and cloud cover was initially 100% stratocumulus diminishing to 30% cirrostratus and cumulus after 1500. Only 41 migrant raptors moved between 0902 and 1851 and of these 38 were Golden Eagles (24a, 6sa, 2j, 6u), the other raptors being a subadult Bald Eagle and 2 light morph Rough-legged Hawks. Movement for much of the day was slow and sporadic and no birds were seen between 1200 and 1400, but the busiest hour of 1400-1500 followed when 8 Golden Eagles moved, 6 of which occurred at one time. Passerine numbers were also thin but included 9 Golden-crowned Kinglets, an American Robin, and an American Tree Sparrow. 10.5 hours (257.66) BAEA 1 (73), RLHA 2 (10), GOEA 38 (1890) TOTAL 41 (2133)
