November 16 [Day 80] (Raymond Toal) It was a pleasant day with the temperature rising from 3.5C at the base of the ridge at 0800 to 7C at 1000 where it remained until 1600. The west winds were moderate in the morning only becoming strong after 1500 and 10% cumulus cloud cover initially increased to 80% at noon but quickly diminished to 20% in the afternoon. The southern end of the Livingstone Range was draped with cloud until 0900 but was subsequently clear for the rest of the day. Movement was again sporadic from the first Golden Eagle at 0858, with half the 14 migrants counted occurring between 1300 and 1400 and the last bird, an unidentified large Accipiter (probably a goshawk) flying south at 1517. 8 hours (877.4) BAEA 6 (546), NOGO 1 (158), UA 1 (57), GOEA 6 (5390) TOTAL 14 (8058)
