April 10 [Day 37] (Joel Duncan) The temperature at 0900 was 3C which rose to a very pleasant 13C at 1700 and was still 10C at 2045. Ground winds were E-NE 5-12 gusting to 23 km/h, becoming moderate SW in the mid-afternoon, while ridge winds were calm-SSW light to moderate. Cloud cover was 30-70% thin cirrostratus giving excellent observing conditions all day. Migration conditions, however, were apparently not excellent as the only migrant raptors seen were a subadult Bald Eagle at 1832 and an adult Northern Goshawk at 1841, both of which flew directly to the north from the northern end of the Fisher Range. Some compensation was the variety of non-raptor bird species including season-first records of 3 Tree Swallows, 3 Ruby-crowned Kinglets, 2 American Pipits and 1 male Rusty Blackbird, while a Wilson's Snipe was heard winnowing for the first time and the Say's Phoebe was still hanging around the meadow. The first of the year's butterflies, 2 Mourning Cloaks, were on the wing as was the first mosquito late in the day. 11.75 (373.91) BAEA 1 (70), NOGO 1 (10) TOTAL 2 (1082)
