Visitors:
Kate and Fox Day. I think his father Todd said that Fox is 100 days or so
old. He is an amazing bundle of cuteness. Not Todd. Fox.

Completely overcast, no win, pleasant, horrible day for hawk migration.
Raptor Observations:
Non-raptor Observations:
Nothing special in the dog department. One Common Loon. Seem to be
uncommon. Lots of Cedar Waxwings and American Robins were on the move.
