Tomorrow is shaping up to be a good one for migration, judging by the weather. I hope to see you out there tomorrow!
NOTE: The main path up the side of the dike impoundment is steep walking. There is an easier, but less direct way up to Morning Flight by taking the path up the slope nearby to the fisherman's parking area along the canal which is located directly across the canal from the ferry terminal.
Weather and time:
sunny and humid; 64–81 ºF; winds SSW-SW at 5-10 mph; 5%
