Monday, March 19 Mount Lorette [Day 17] 0715-1930 (George Halmazna, assisted by Dan and Cindy Parliament). The starting temperature was -10C, rose to a high at 1600 of 5C and was 2C at the end of observation. Ground winds were SW light (1-5 km/h) to 1500 and SW 5-10 gusting 25 km/h for the rest of the day, while ridge winds were SW moderate all day. Cloud cover was 10-40% cumulus with 20% cirrus developing late in the day and ridges were all essentially clear. The conditions produced a fairly strong raptor migration of 116 birds between 1114 and 1757 that comprised 5 Bald Eagles (4a, 1j), 1 adult Northern Goshawk and 110 Golden Eagles (107a, 3j) with peak movement of 41 birds (3 Bald Eagles and 38 Golden Eagles) between 1500 and 1600. Movement was on the western route to noon after which it switched to the east with most birds flying from the Fisher Range to Humming Bird Plume Hill where eagles soared high before gliding to the NW over Skogan Pass. Only the last 10 birds of the day flew to the NW above Mount Lorette. Other birds present were 1 Ruffed Grouse, 1 Hairy Woodpecker, 3 Grey Jays, 12 Common Ravens, 2 Black-capped Chickadees, 1 Mountain Chickadee, 1 Red-breasted Nuthatch and 1 European Starling. The 30 visitors to the site included 27 students and staff from Crescent Heights High-School in Calgary.

Monday, March 19 Beaver Mines [Day 23] 0800-1820 (Peter Sherrington). The temperature at 0800 was -5C, rose to a high of 5C between 1400 and 1600 and was 3C at the end of observation. Winds were WSW all day, light to 1100 and then 15-30 km/h for the rest of the day, and cloud cover was initially 100% stratus that produced light snow to 0830 and quickly thinned after 1000 to 50-10% cumulus to 1600 after which it was cloudless for the rest of the day. After two weeks of mainly upslope light winds, this afternoon’s conditions were ideal for raptor migration and produced a season-high count of 159 birds of 5 species that moved between 1257 and 1810. The count was a season-high 19 adult Bald Eagles, 2 adult Northern Goshawks, 1u light morph calurus Red-tailed Hawk, 7 Rough-legged Hawks (6 light, 1 dark) and a season-high 130 Golden Eagles (127a, 2sa, 1j). Movement was very steady between 1300 and 1800 and produced hourly counts of 15, 34, 51 (1500-1600), 25 and 30, with only 3 birds seen after 1800.

Monday, March 19 Steeples [Day 15] 1530-1900 (Vance Mattson). The temperature at 1530 was 8C which dropped to 5C by 1900. Conditions were calm and cloud cover was 80-100% cumulus, altostratus, altocumulus and stratus, and the ridges north of the site were obscured throughout. Migration was sparse with only 3 adult Bald Eagles and 5 adult Golden Eagles seen, with 5 of the birds recorded between 1730 and 1740. Resident activity, however, was again strong comprising 5 Bald Eagles (3a, 2j) that included a courtship flight, and a pair of Golden Eagles that displayed as Vance arrived at the site.

Sunday, March 18 Mount Lorette [Day 16] 0730-1930 (Bill Wilson, assisted by Heinz Unger). The starting temperature was -2C, dropped to -3C between 0900 and 1100, reached a high of -1C between 1400 and 1800 and was -2C at 1930. Ground winds were NW-N 5-15 gusting 20 km/h all day and ridge winds were probably similar. Cloud cover was 100% stratus all day with moderate snow falling to 1100, light snow to 1300 and very light snow for the rest of the day. The west was 100% obscured all day and the east cleared to 80-90% in the early afternoon. Despite these conditions there was again a small movement of eagles with 6 Bald Eagles (4a, 1sa, 1j) and 4 adult Golden Eagles migrating between 1029 and 1632. Birds moved low over the central or eastern part of the valley or, when conditions allowed, along the Fisher Range ridge. Other birds seen were 1 Grey Jay, 6 Common Ravens, 8 European Starlings, 4 Snow Buntings (appropriate to the conditions!) and 2 Common Redpolls. Eight visitors made it to the site.

Sunday, March 18 Beaver Mines [Day 22] 0800-1130, 1400-1700 (Peter Sherrington). The temperature was -2C at 0800, fell to -4C at 1100, was -3C at 1400 and fell again to -4C at 1600 where it remained for the rest of the day. Winds were NE-ESE all day, calm to light to 1000 and then 15-18 km/h for the rest of the day. Fog filled the valley and obscured the ridge to 1000 when it briefly cleared and allowed the passage of an adult Bald Eagle at 1008, which proved to be the day’s only migrant as the dense fog returned immediately afterwards. The fog was replaced by freezing rain at 1130 which gradually turned to light snow which became heavier as the afternoon progressed, and the ridge never cleared again although it remained a ghostly outline. The forecast tomorrow calls for the snow to stop around noon, with moderate W winds developing in the afternoon which should finally be favourable for raptor movement: we shall see!

Sunday, March 18 Steeples [Day 14] 1100-1800 (Vance Mattson). The temperature was -1C at 1100 and rose to a high of 5C, winds were light NE with calm periods and cloud was 100% altostratus and stratus throughout. The ridges to the north became obscured by 1600 and by 1700 the main ridges were also obscured and observation ceased at 1800. A total of 61 migrants moved steadily between 1258 and 1654 comprising 5 Bald Eagles (3a, 2j), 1 adult Northern Goshawk, which was the first non-eagle migrant of the season, and 55 Golden Eagles (45a, 2sa, 7j, 1u). The flight was slow and involved much soaring and flapping, but was steady with hourly counts after 1300 of 19, 14, 19 and 7 with the last bird, a juvenile Golden Eagle, moving north just as the ridge was being enveloped by cloud. Two migrant Golden Eagles were seen to briefly perch during a calm period between 1400 and 1500, and a third migrant interrupted its soaring by making a vertical hunting stoop, the result of which was hidden behind a ridge.Non-migrant eagles were also conspicuous and comprised 2 juvenile Bald Eagles, one of which interacted with a juvenile Golden Eagle, and 5 Golden Eagles (3a, 2j) with one of the adults performing the first display flight seen this season.

Saturday, March 17 Mount Lorette 0740-1720 (Jim Davis). The starting temperature was -2C, the high 3C at 1500 and it was 1C at the end of observation. Ground winds were light NE all day and ridge winds were also light E-NE. Cloud cover was 100% stratocumulus and stratus all day but became slightly broken allowing hazy sunshine between 1200 and 1400. A further 5cm of snow fell to 1128 and the ridges were all obscured to 1400 after which the east was up to 50% clear. Despite these unpromising conditions a total of 41 migrants of 5 species were recorded between 0949 and 1535. The first bird, a juvenile Bald Eagle flew low above the river to the north, and the rest of the birds were seen between 1242 and 1535 with 17 occurring between 1300 and 1400 and 18 between 1400 and 1500. During this period eagles soared low against Mount Kidd and Mount Allan and flew low over Skogan Pass to the NW and the Bow Valley when the cloud cover appeared to be thinner. Two adult-shinned Hawks flew low together to the north just west of the Hay Meadow, 2 adult Northern Goshawks flew over Skogan Pass together and a dark morph Gyrfalcon was also seen The final count was 7 Bald Eagles (1a, 3sa, 3j), 2 adult Sharp-shinned Hawks, 2 adult Northern Goshawks, 29 Golden Eagles (14a, 1sa, 14u) and 1 dark morph Gyrfalcon. Other birds present were a Northern Pygmy-Owl that sang east of the river at 0947, 5 Grey Jays, 7 Common Ravens, 1 Mountain Chickadee and 3 European Starlings. Thirteen hardy visitors made it to the site today.

Saturday, March 17 Beaver Mines [Day 21] 0800-1800 (Peter Sherrington). The temperature at 0800 was -6C, the high between 1300 and 1700 was 2C and it was 0C at 1800. Winds were yet again light and mainly SE-E and apart from the first half-hour when it was cloudless, cloud cover was 100% stratus and stratocumulus all day. The conditions again proved inimical to raptor movement and only 8 migrants were recorded between 1130 and 1736: 4 Bald Eagles (2a, 1sa, 1j), 1 adult rufous morph calurus Red-tailed Hawk, 2 Rough-legged Hawks (1 light, 1 dark) and only 1 adult Golden Eagle. Three American Robins were the first for the year, as was a Killdeer that flew above the valley towards the SW at 1616.

Saturday, March 17 Steeples [Day 13] 1100-1900 (Vance Mattson). The temperature reached a high of 9C from a low of 3C at 1100 winds were light N-NE and 20-50% mainly cumulus cloud behind the ridges gave good observing conditions. A season-high count of 128 migrants was made between 1205 and 1801 that comprised 9 Bald Eagles (5a, 1sa, 3j) and a season-high 119 Golden Eagles (105a, 2sa, 12j). Migration was initially slow with only 9 birds recorded by 1400, but the next 4 hours produced counts of 17, 31, 47 (16-1700) and 24 eagles. Soaring kettles of up to 6 eagles occurred but most flight, especially between 1500 and 1700, was high fast gliding after which it was generally close to ridge level. Non-migrant or resident birds involved 9 sightings of Bald Eagles (4a, 1sa, 4j) and 6 sightings of Golden Eagles (5a, 1j). The highlight of non-raptor movement was the first occurrence of a flock of 14 California Gulls that soared very high above the ridge before moving off to the north.

Thursday, March 15 Steeples (Vance Mattson). NO OBSERVATION (Weather). Low cloud obscured the valley and mountains all day.

Friday, March 16 Mount Lorette 0830-2010 (Caroline Lambert, assisted by Rick Robb). Caroline drove to the site in dense fog, was greeted by 30 cm of fresh snow and had to snowshoe to the Hay Meadow site. The temperature at 0830 was -3C, the high at 1600 and 1700 was 3C and it was 2C at 2000. Ground winds were light and very variable all day and ridge winds were moderate SW to 1200, moderate S to 1600 and then E moderate to light for the rest of the day. Cloud cover was 20-30% cumulus to 1500 after which it thickened to 70-100% cumulus and altostratus to the end of observation. The eastern route was clear to 1100, was 20% obscured to 1500 and was then variably 40-70% obscured. The west was clear to 0900 and was then was very variably obscured 20-100% throughout the rest of the day. Fortunately no further snow fell. Despite the conditions a season-high 153 eagles migrated between 1130 and 1850, 150 of which were a season-high count of Golden Eagles. The flight comprised 3 adult Bald Eagles and 150 Golden Eagles (89a, 4sa, 5j, 52u). The hourly counts were 2 (1130-1200), 3 (12-1300), 8 (13-1400), 9 (14-1500), 47 (15-1600, including kettles of 8 and 10 eagles), 50 (16-1700, including kettles of 9, 16 and 13), 30 (17-1800) and 4 (1800-1850). Much of the movement was on the western route with kettles forming over Hummingbird Hill and Mount Lorette where birds often soared into low cloud. Other birds later in the day moved from the Fisher Range to Mount Lorette. One resident Bald Eagle and the resident pair of Golden Eagles were also noted. Other birds seen were 1 Pileated Woodpecker, 1 Grey Jay, 14 Common Ravens, 1 Black-capped Chickadee, 1 Mountain Chickadee, 1 American Dipper and 2 Pine Grosbeaks. Five visitors made it to the site.

Friday, March 16 Beaver Mines [Day 20] 0800-2000 (Peter Sherrington). The temperature at 0800 was -1C, reached a high of 6C from 1200 to 1600 and was 0C at 1800. Winds were WSW 15-25 km/h to 1100 and then became variable and light for the rest of the day. Cloud cover was 20-70% thin altostratus to 1100 and 100% thin stratus for the rest of the day which gave hazy sunshine and excellent observing conditions. Ten migrants (1 Bald and 9 Golden Eagles) moved high to the NW between 0820 and 1054, but once the moderate WSW winds ceased only 4 more raptors were seen between 1355 and 1636, all of which flapped low to the NNW. The count was 2 adult Bald Eagles, 1 light morph Rough-legged Hawk and 11 Golden Eagles (10a, 1sa).

Friday, March 16 Steeples [Day 12] 1300-1915 (Vance Mattson). The temperature was 8C, conditions were calm and cloud cover was initially 40% cumulus concentrated behind the ridges that changed to 70% cumulus, stratus, and altostratus by 1400. By 1630 the high peaks were also clear with 40% cumulus, thin altostratus and lenticular cloud, which changed again to 70% thin altostratus and lenticular by 1800. A season-high 117 migrants, all eagles, migrated between 1315 and 1854 comprising 16 Bald Eagles (7a, 9j) and a season-high 101 Golden Eagles (96a, 5j). At first movement was direct gliding flight, but after 1700 soaring was the dominant mode with 2 kettles of 6 birds seen between 1700 and 1800 and another of 5 birds at 1814. Many eagles again appeared to move as pairs. Hourly counts were 15 (1315-1400), 17 (14-1500), 3 (15-1600), 26 (16-1700), 48 (17-1800) and 8 (1800-1854). Non-migrant activity was also plentiful and comprised 6 Bald Eagles (4a, 1sa, 1j) including a courtship soaring and pursuit display by an adult pair seen on two occasions, and 5 sightings of Golden Eagles (3a, 2j) that included an adult that perched unconcernedly while several conspecific migrants passed directly overhead. An American Robin and 5 Dark-eyed Juncos were also seen for the first time at the site.

Monday, March 12 Mount Lorette [Day 11] 0725-2005 (George Halmazna, assisted by Dan Parliament). The starting temperature was -14C which rose to a high of 10C at 1700 and was -2C at 2000. Ground winds were light SW to 1400 after which they gusted to 15 km/h to 1800 and then were calm for the last 2 hours of observation, while ridge winds were SW light to moderate all day. The sky was cloudless all day. A total of 23 eagles, 4 adult Bald Eagles and 19 Golden Eagles (17a, 1sa, 1u) migrated between 0830 and 1822 with 5 birds counted between 1300 and 1400 and again between 1600 and 1700. Only 2 birds used the west route, while the rest were initially located over the northern end of the Fisher Range from where they flew either to Mount Lorette or to Skogan Pass. Two adult Bald Eagles and 1 adult Golden Eagle were considered to be residents. Other birds recorded were 1 Canada Goose, 1 Great Horned Owl singing at 1920, 1 Hairy Woodpecker, 3 Grey Jays, 24 Common Ravens, 2 Black-capped Chickadees, 2 Mountain Chickadees and 2 White-winged Crossbills. Despite the spring-like weather only 4 visitors were seen at the site today.

Monday, March 12 Beaver Mines [Day 16] 0800-1900 (Peter Sherrington, Gord Petersen after 1700). The temperature at 0800 was -3C, the high was 11C at 1500 and it was 7C at 1800. Winds were calm or light SE-NE all day and skies were completely cloudless. The only migrants seen were adult Bald Eagles at 1419, 1425 and 1637, and a light morph Rough-legged Hawk at 1553. Gord spent 2 hours (1400-1600) at the Castle River Bridge in the Castle Provincial Park 12.5 km SW of Beaver Mines, where the wind was light W-SW. He counted 11 migrant eagles, 6 adult Bald Eagles and 5 Golden Eagles (2sa, 3u), that migrated slowly on a broad front from Table Mountain to west of the Carbondale Ridge between 1424 and 1530. This confirmed that migrants do indeed pass in significant numbers to the west of the Beaver Mines site.

Monday, March 12 Steeples [Day 9] 1515-1900 (Vance Mattson). The temperature reached a high of 11C and it was calm and cloudless throughout the observation period which saw a total of 38 eagles migrate between 1245 and 1824: 3 adult Bald Eagles and 35 Golden Eagles (29a, 1sa, 5j). Six of the birds were seen before 1600 and 15 and 14 were counted between 1600 and 1700, and 1700 and 1800 respectively. More than half the eagles appeared from behind the main ridges, possibly owing to the calm conditions, and many of the birds appeared to move as pairs. Resident birds were 4 Bald Eagles (2a, 2j) and 3 Golden Eagles (1a, 2j). The juveniles of both species were seen together for extended periods with the Bald Eagles indulging in protracted mutual pursuit behaviour.

Tuesday, March 13 Mount Lorette [Day 12] 0800-1945 (Blake Weis, assisted by Brian McBride). The temperature at 0800 was -9C, the high was 11C from 1500 to 1800 and it was 5C at the end of observation. Ground winds were variable 0-5 km/h to 1200 after which they were mainly SW 0-5 gusting 15 km/h, while ridge winds were SW, light to 1200 and light to moderate in the afternoon. Cloud cover was 10-20% cirrus all day. Raptor movement again consisted entirely of eagles with 6 Bald Eagles (5a and 1 undifferentiated immature bird) and 17 adult Golden Eagles all migrating steadily on the eastern route between 1418 and 1838, with most birds being initially located over Mount Lorette after presumably originating from the Wasootch Creek area. A single adult resident Golden Eagle was seen mainly soaring over Mount Collembola or Hummingbird Plume Hill. Other birds noted were 5 Grey Jays, 1 Black-billed Magpie, 14 Common ravens, 1 Black-capped Chickadee, 1 Mountain Chickadee, 1 Boreal Chickadee, 1 American Dipper, 1 European Starling, 35 Bohemian Waxwings and 1 Dark-eyed Junco.

Winds were again very variable and generally light, and skies were again cloudless to 1700 after which 10% altostratus developed. Conditions again were not conducive to raptor movement and only 4 migrants were seen: 2 adult Bald Eagles at 1335, the season’s first Red-tailed Hawk, an adult light morph of the race calurus, at 1159 and 1 light morph Rough-legged Hawk at 1500. The unseasonably high temperature produced the first butterfly of the year, a probable very early Brown Elfin that was on the wing at 1355. Gord Petersen again spent 2 hours at the Castle Bridge site (1500-1700) but the only migrants seen were an adult Bald Eagle soaring over Table Mountain and an unidentified eagle moving well to the west of the Carbondale Ridge. Several non-migrant Bald Eagles were also noted in the area.

A total of 21 migrant eagles moved between 1531 and 1825 that comprised 6 Bald Eagles (4a, 2j) and 15 adult Golden Eagles. Ten of the birds migrated between 1600 and 1700, and movement was slow, low and involved much soaring flight. Resident or non-migrant birds were four sightings of Bald Eagles (2a, 1sa, 1j) and three sightings of adult Golden Eagles.

Ground winds were S-SW 0-5 km/h to 1400 and then N-NE 0-5 gusting 15 km/h, while ridge winds were SW all day, light to 1400 and then light to moderate. Cloud cover was 70-90% cirrus, altocumulus and occasional altostratus to 1500 when it briefly reduced to 40% cirrus and altocumulus before thickening again to 100% altostratus, altocumulus and cirrus by 1800. The ridges were clear all day. There was again a steady movement of 41 migrant raptors between 1338 and 1924 comprising 2 adult Bald Eagles, 38 Golden Eagles (32a, 6u) and the season’s first Prairie Falcon. Unusually, most of the movement was on the western route, with the exception of 10 birds that moved from the northern end of the Fisher Range to Mount Lorette, and the exceptionally late adult Bald Eagle recorded at 1924 that glided above the centre of the valley. The busiest hour was 1600-1700 when 20 birds (1 Bald Eagle and 19 Golden Eagles) moved. One resident adult Bald Eagle soared over Mount Old Baldy and a resident adult Golden Eagle was seen perched on Mount Lorette. Other birds present were 1 Hairy Woodpecker, 5 Grey Jays, 2 Black-billed Magpies, 13 Common Ravens, 1 Black-capped Chickadee, 1 Townsend’s Solitaire that sang near the parking area early in the morning, 1 European Starling, 20 Bohemian Waxwings, 1 Red Crossbill and 8 Common Redpolls. Six Bighorn Sheep were seen on Olympic Summit, and 6 visitors came to the site today.

Wednesday, March 14 Beaver Mines [Day 17] 0800-1930 (Peter Sherrington). The temperature at 0800 was -1C, the high was 10C at 1600 and it was 5C when observation finished at 1930. Winds were generally light WNW-NE to 1430 when 10-15 km/h WSW winds developed that gradually increased to 30-40 km/h by 1900. Cloud cover was 60-80% altostratus, altocumulus and cumulus to 1500 after which it was 100% altostratus and cirrus to 1800 and then 100% uniform grey stratus for the rest of the day. No migrant raptors were seen up to 1435, but as soon as the moderate WSW winds started a steady stream of a season-high 61 birds of 3 species moved high to the NW up to 1854. The flight comprised 4 Bald Eagles (3a, 1j), a season-high 16 Rough-legged Hawks (15 light, 1 dark) that were seen between 1541 and 1738, and a season-high 41 Golden Eagles (40a, 1j). Nineteen birds moved between 1700 and 1800 and again between 1800 and 1854. Denise Cocciolone-Amatto also spent 2 hours (1415-1615) observing the Livingstone Ridge from the Frank site where she saw 75 eagles, 2 adult Bald Eagles and 73 Golden Eagles (72a, 1j), gliding to the north above the ridge. All the birds seen today were moving ahead of a northward-moving front that is expected to arrive tomorrow morning bringing rain and heavy snow to the area.
