March 9 [Day 6] (Peter Sherrington) It was a much warmer day with the temperature rising to 4C at 1400 from a low of -3C, ground winds were SW-SSE all day gusting to 25 km/h in the afternoon while ridge winds were strong all day, SW to 1500 and then SSW with a maximum gust of 150 km/h at 1500. Cloud cover was 70-100% mainly altostratus and cumulus with light snow starting at 1540 after the ridges to the south had been obscured since 1130. At 1620 the observers moved to Lusk Creek for the rest of the day. An adult Bald Eagle flying low to the north at 0735 raised hopes of some concerted movement but it again proved to be a disappointing day for migration with only 2 more birds seen at the Hay Meadow site: an adult Golden Eagle at 1308 and an adult Bald Eagle at 1411, while Lusk Creek provided the first Rough-legged Hawk of the season. An non-migratory adult Northern Goshawk hunting over Hummingbird Plume Hill at 0927 was the first seen this season.10.75 hours (65) BAEA 2 (6), RLHA 1 (1), GOEA 1 (8) TOTAL 4 (16)
