Bill James and I went up to give Dillard a hand. Anyone with some free time
is encouraged to go to your local hawkwatch and help the counter on duty locate
a few hawks. It's difficult to keep up with the whole sky by
yourself....attendance at many hawkwatches drops off a great deal after the
Broad-winged
season. Veteran hawkwatchers will tell you the best part of hawkwatching is
just
beginning.
