Joachim Bible Refuge Green Co., Tn. On Saturday, April 2nd. we also saw the Rough-legged Hawk. It was a life bird for Cynthia. We arrived about 3 pm and I instantly saw the bird fly over head near the bridge. I had only a glimpse at that time but it was enough to see several field marks. About an hour later, Cynthia, found the bird again and this time we had excellent views for 5 or more minutes. Also seen were a couple Red-tailed Hawks and a Northern Harrier, possible two flying low over the fields. As we were leaving we spotted a lone Chimney Swift. The day was gorgeous but the wind was brutal for us as well as for the raptors.
