Visitors:
The trail was dry. There were a few hikers and bike riders on the trail but none visited observation.
Weather:
Good weather in the morning gave way to clouds and precipitation. Persistent drizzle and lowering cloud level ended the count early.
Raptor Observations:
All the raptors I counted were above the ridge and at eye level. Binoculars were not needed for most.
Non-raptor Observations:
I saw a few of the usual passerines on the ridge, but there was low activity.
Predictions:
The wet weather may continue into tomorrow.
