April 25 [Day 66] (Valley View site) (Bill Wilson) The temperature was 0.5C at 0610 and rose to a high of 9C at 1400 falling by several degrees in the afternoon as rain and snow showers periodically developed. Ground winds were principally SW gusting to 20 km/h and cloud cover was mainly 90-100% cumulus and altostratus, with the ridges becoming partially obscured after 1500. Once again the conditions were not conducive to raptor movement and the only migrants recorded were a female or juvenile Northern Harrier at 1119 and an unaged Northern Goshawk at 1135. 13.33 hours (766.2) NOHA 1 (12), NOGO 1 (81) TOTAL 2 (2771)
