March 3 [Day 13] A temperature range of -2C to 1C and strong W to WNW winds all day made observation uncomfortable, although 80-100% altostratus and cumulus cloud made detection of birds easy. The day started promisingly enough with 4 Bald Eagles and a Golden Eagle moving between 0939 and 0957, but thereafter migration was sporadic with most of the birds being buffeted by the strong winds. The female resident Golden Eagle perched above the aerie for about 40 minutes in mid morning while the male hunted, but no food exchange was observed and the nest itself was not visited. A flock of 40 Bohemian Waxwings was the largest seen so far this season. 10.75 hours (129.7) BAEA 4 (76), RLHA 1 (5), GOEA 11 (72) TOTAL 16 (159)
