September 20 [Day 26] The temperature at 0800 was a season high 16C but it only climbed to 17.5C and was 13.5C at 1900. The wind was light from the east all day and 60-100% cirrostratus and cirrus cloud gave way after 1600 to 60-100% altocumulus and cirrus providing good to excellent viewing conditions all day despite the persistence of smoke haze. Although there was not a lot of raptor movement, the variety was excellent with 11 species (and an additional subspecies) moving. The first Sharp-shinned Hawk flew south at 0816 but by 1300 only 9 birds had been seen. The pace quickened after 1300 with the birds moving in clusters interspersed with blank periods and the last bird, a Red-tailed Hawk, was seen at 1735. The 5 Ospreys were a season high and the 4 Broad-winged Hawks brought the season's total to 14, which is a new high count for the site. Two of the 7 Red-tailed Hawks were adult dark morph "Harlan's Hawks", and for the first time this season adult Sharp-shinned Hawks outnumbered juveniles. As yesterday only 1 Golden Eagle (a juvenile) moved south but with the barometer falling and cooler, wetter weather forecasted for the next couple of days they may finally be given an incentive to migrate. Passerine movement was steady in the morning but virtually non-existent after noon. Migrants included 14 Red-breasted Nuthatches, 6 Golden-crowned and 21 Ruby-crowned Kinglets, 10 Mountain Bluebirds, 2 Townsend's Solitaires, 72 American Robins, 1 American Pipit, 11 Yellow-rumped Warblers, 80 White-winged Crossbills and 68 Pine Siskins. Twenty-six of the day's 34 Dark-eyed Juncos were cismontanus, a race that mainly breeds in NE British Columbia and S Yukon. 12.25 (292.92) OSPR 5 (13), NOHA 4 (27), SSHA 12 (607), COHA 6 (137), NOGO 1 (50), BWHA 4 (14), RTHA 7 (83), GOEA 1 (133), AMKE 1 (16), MERL 2 (13), PEFA 1 (6), UU 1 (12) TOTAL 45 (1156)
