Image: Operation Migration Trike Cam, December 2, 2011 Headwinds and threat of rain shut down hopes for more progress today. A weather system currently over Texas is likely to reach the birds' Union County, Kentucky location by tomorrow morning, bringing 50-mph winds aloft. This is Down Day 1, and tomorrow likely will be Down Day 2. (Map|Data) In the Classroom: Journal or Discussion It's Saturday: No school, no questions today!
