10/1 - Very good day with heavy cloud cover which make it easier to spot hawks high up. There were more hawks I miss as I was seeing several unidentified accipiter and buteo going low behind trees over to east side of ridge, not visible from here.
Single flock of 26 dc cormorant headed SE at 1211pm and single flock of 9 geese also headed SE at 352pm. Good look at low flying young male Baltimore Oriole headed SW overhead. 3 robins high flying headed SE.

If had time for full day each day since Aug, total raptors would be 17,000+ by now with roughly 15,000+ Broadwings and 2000 other raptors. On my final full year in 2000 I had over 15,000 Broadwings and 4000 other raptors due to more hours each day.
