Raptor Observations: BE- 11:58I
A slow, quiet day on the ridge with only 3 raptors counted. TV's moving back and forth along the ridge all day long. Our first raptor of the day was a Sharpie that moved past the watch site below eye level above the river. This was also our Bird of the Day as it gave us the best look of the day. The Bald Eagle and Northern Harrier both passed the watch site very high on the reservoir side.
