November 25 [Day 91] (Valley View site) It was even more pleasant than yesterday with the temperature rising to 8.5C from a low of 4C and it was still 5.5C at 1700. Ground winds varied from NW to SW generally 10-25km/h but occasionally gusting 50 km/h, and ridge winds were strong WNW for most of the day except between 1200 and 1430 when they moderated somewhat. An altostratus Chinook Arch formed over the Livingstone Range until 1330 when it moved off to the east leaving a variable cloud cover of 60-90% combinations of cumulus, altostratus, altocumulus and cirrus, and once again observation conditions were excellent. Raptor movement was again strong with 61 birds moving between 0933 and 1626 with 35 of the birds moving between 1300 and 1500. The combined species count was the highest since November 9 while the 49 Bald Eagles (46 adults, 1 subadult and 2 juveniles) was the highest count of the season so far and equals the highest count ever at the site. The total of 10 Golden Eagles comprised 9 adults and 1 subadult, an adult Northern Goshawk was the first migrant since November 13 and an adult grey morph Gyrfalcon at 1532 was the 9th of the season which equals the high count for the species at the site. The Bald Eagle recorded at 1352 was the 7000th migrant raptor of the season, while that at 1404 was the 600th Bald Eagle of the season. 10.08 hours (1034.1) BAEA 49 (617), NOGO 1 (136), GOEA 10 (4255), GYRF 1 (9) TOTAL 61 (7028)
