Lisa,
I've been to Mendota about a dozen times during Oct and Nov. I never had a good
hawk day on those occasions. It is still possible. The best thing to try is to
time it with a weather event. One or two days after a strong system moving
through out of the northwest is considered favorable. Now is a good time for
accipiters. Redtails and Turkey Vultures should come later this month and into
Nov. You could also get eagles and other hawks throughout the fall.
I have had good hawk days in Oct and Nov at Hawk Mountain in PA and Cape May in
NJ.> Date: Sun, 5 Oct 2008 21:40:37 -0400> From: lisatyler1961@xxxxxxxxxxx> To:

from church expressed interest today in exploring Clinch Mountain (I told them
there's not much up there, but it's certainly beautiful). I heard the red-tails
start migrating mid-October and through November, and thought my friends might
enjoy a chance at seeing them. Do you know have any experience seeing them come
through, or when the best target date would be? Are their numbers anywhere near
the broad-wings?> > Thanks for any tips you can share!> > Lisa
