September 15 [Day 21] It was 11C at 0800 and rose to a season high 20C by 1500 and was still 18C at 1900. The sky was essentially cloudless all day and after 1300 there was not even a trace of cloud. As yesterday the wind was initially NW or WNW becoming W after 1600 and was consistently between 15 and 30 km/h all day. The blue-out conditions made observation challenging but an additional 8 pairs of eyes at the site for much of the day helped considerably. Movement started somewhat earlier than yesterday with the first Sharp-shinned Hawk moving south at 0917, but like yesterday concerted movement only started after noon and was steady until the last 2 Golden Eagles were seen at 1903. The 127 migrants counted was the second highest count for the season and comprised 11 species. Again the flight was dominated by Sharp-shinned Hawks (63), and Bald Eagle (4), Red-tailed Hawk (9) and Golden Eagle (24) had their highest totals for the season to date: two of the Red-tails were juvenile dark morph "Harlan's Hawks". Passerine movement was relatively thin and included 48 Red-breasted Nuthatches, 29 Yellow-rumped Warblers and 1 Townsend's Warbler, but the highlight was a Common Raven that flew to the south along the ridge at 1330 with a golf ball in its bill. Where it found it is anybody's guess! 12.5 hours (232.67) OSPR 1 (5), BAEA 4 (11), NOHA 1 (19), SSHA 63 (446), COHA 7 (87), NOGO 6 (32), UA 4 (16), RTHA 9 (44), GOEA 24 (107), AMKE 2 (10), MERL 2 (9), PEFA 1 (5), UU 3 (3) TOTAL 127 (806)
