A pair is nesting (?) on the east slope of Town Mountain along Vance Gap Road.
I see them wheeling around from my front porch most mornings.
A second pair is behind my house on the west slope of Cisco Mountain. My
neighbor, Steve Longnecker, has a couple of injured hawks that he shows to
elementary school classes and the Broad-wings come by evey day or so and yell
at the cages.
A third pair can be seen flying across I-240 near Wal-Mart - often with
nestling birds in their talons.
American Bittern yesterday at 5pm in the rushes on the east side of the upper
pond at Owen Park. cheers, bill
