October 21 [Day 54] Again the temperature rose to a high of 0C from a low of -3C, but only fell to -1C at 1900 so it may be warming up! Winds were moderate WNW early but after 1140 became strong gusting over 70 km/h between 1600 and 1700 giving problems with blowing snow for the first time this season. Cloud cover was only 20% cumulus until 1000 when it began to cloud over and the afternoon saw generally dark 90-100% altostratus and cumulus cloud. Raptor movement didn’t start until 0911 with the passage of the first Golden Eagle, but increased quickly with the highest hourly count (22) being 1000-1100. Subsequent movement was fairly steady until the last Golden Eagle moved at 1820. All but 6 birds seen were eagles, a typical situation of high wind conditions, and many of the eagles were buffeted by the wind as they glided high to the south. The only Red-tailed Hawk was an adult light morph calurus. Passerine movement was again dominated by Grey-crowned Rosy Finch (140) and Common Redpoll (143) and a single Snow Bunting also passed high overhead to the south. 11.75 hours (607.77) BAEA 15 (242), SSHA 2 (1186), COHA 1 (188), NOGO 1 (84), RTHA 1 (182), GOEA 121 (4138), PRFA 1 (14) TOTAL 142 (6322)
