A great day at Mendota Fire Tower. A total of 445 Broad-winged Hawks, 5 Bald
Eagles and 2 Osprey.
Hawkwatchers Today: Jennifer Kennedy, Jean Montgomery and Laverne Hunter. I had
all 5 eagles in the last hour and a half. There were 2 adults with a large
kettle of Broad-winged Hawks and the last 3 were all juveniles and all at eye
level close in to the ridge.
