thrill! I don't know what I will do with myself if we ever see one of =
the very large flights!

area? They were low, and they never climbed but continued circling =
within the group as they moved forward south. We are just on a little =
ridge, so our perspective was limited. A wider view would have been =
great! I could get into hawk watching!!
