This combination is less than ideal for a good hawkwatch. Raptor Observations: I've more or less forgotten what raptors look like in the past two days. Non-raptor Observations: A reasonable movement of Purple Finches and Eastern Bluebirds occurred in the morning. Predictions: It is very unlikely to be anything other than absolutely awful. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Cameron Cox (Kumlieni@gmail.com) Cape May information may be found at: http://BirdCapeMay.org
