Yep, that's right, another 2000 Broad-winged Hawk day! We had over 1300 in a 45
minute period around 1:30. The largest group was 730. No hawks after 3:45. I
left at 5:15 when I heard thunder in the distance. We are at the hihest total
for the last 9 years. I will continue to be at the fre tower through 9-27-2009.
Hawkwatchers today: Jennifer Kennedy, Roy Knispel, Dr. and Mrs. Malcolm Jones.
