Migration Day 16
Grounded
in. . .WIND-iana
+0 Miles
Despite
a forecast of calm morning air, gusty winds blew from the south.
It was windy enough to ground the migration in Benton County,
Indiana. Yet, 5 miles away from the pen location the air was
indeed
calm. Are the winds teasing the team again this year? It's happened
so many times in the past that the team has dubbed this state WIND-iana.
Oh well. The team will do their laundry and other chores
that have piled up over the past few busy days, and hope to fly tomorrow.
