Hopefully, Sunday is drier and more productive. Weather: As expected ...rain, rain and more rain! Raptor Observations: A few birds were noted before the rain shut down what little movement there was today... a couple of Sharpies and just singles of Osprey and A. Kestrel. Non-raptor Observations: None reported. Predictions: Winds are forecast to be WSW to SW and light, BUT at least there shouldn't be any rain around. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Dave Brown (thebro...@ezlink.on.ca) Hawk Cliff Hawkwatch information may be found at: http://www.ezlink.on.ca/~thebrowns/HawkCliff/index.htm _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
