Soddy Mtn. Hawk Watch
Hamilton Co., TN
This past week was somewhat slow for migrants. I believe that migration may be
about a week slower than the previous ten years. Today, Sunday was a good day
for BROADWINGED-HAWK migrants mostly due to the cold front that passed through
yesterday. Several good cloud formations were also helpful.
Weeks Totals:
Monday 9/10 Nothing seen.
Tuesday 9/11 Rained out
Wednesday 9/12 6 Broad-winged Hawks
Thursday 9/13 11 Broad-winged Hawks; 1 Sharp-shinned Hawk;
1 Cooper's Hawk; 1 Bald Eagle (immature).
Friday 9/14 Rained out
Saturday 31 Broad-winged Hawks
Sunday 104 Broad-winged Hawks
Y-T-D:
152 Broad-winged Hawks
1 Sharp-shinned Hawk
1 Cooper's Hawk
1 Bald Eagle (imma.)
Come on up this coming week. I will try and be at the lookout from
10:30 until 5:00 Monday 9-17 thru Sunday 9-23. Generally, this is the peak
week for hawk watching in the Chattanooga area. If it's raining, the hawks
won't fly! Send me a message off line if you haven't seen the previously
posted directions.
