Temp in the 40s, A ray of sunshine early, then rain all day, Wind SSW 15-30 mph

Now that’s Adak weather!

Hardly any birds today, the constant rain and howling winds saw to that.

A brief rainbow when we first ventured out this morning.

Rainbow on Adak, September 25, 2019

Then the rains came!

Even the birds off the Seawall who are used to stormy seas were few and far between.

The plane arrived in spite of the weather and Bob and Steve departed this evening. Although they did not see a lot of Asian rarities, they will be among the elite few who have seen Marsh Sandpiper in North America!

We will be on our own the next few days.
