Monday, Oct.12 along the lakefront was overcast with very light SW wind and only a steady BP. As a result the migrating raptors at Cranberry Marsh RW in Whitby were very few-- over 3 AM hours we observed only 22 hawks--4 N.Harrier, 12 Sharp-shinned, 1 Cooper's, 1 fast low-flying Goshawk, 3 Kestrels and 1 Unidentified raptor.
Near the platform was a male Eastern Towhee, an Eastern Phoebe and a Blue-headsd Vireo, among many other birds.
