Hi Birders:
The 2003 Mendota Hawk Watch "officially" began on September 9, 2003, with Ron
Harrington and Bob Quillen serving as the "early bird" watchers. As you can
see, we started off kinda slow with only a few "advance scouts," but the action
really picked up well today. We were not at the site on 9-11.

migrations. If you are at the site when I am absent (e.g., both days this
weekend) and happen to be the one keeping the count, please send me the numbers
as soon as possible. My e-mail is roneharrin@xxxxxxx, and phone is (276)
