Yesterday Zach Gayk counted for me. In the last hour of the count he had a juvenile SWAINSON’S HAWK fly through. He also had a GOLDEN EAGLE in the 6th hour. It was another day of northerly winds for Zach. He ended the day with 38 BROAD-WINGED HAWKS, 1 BALD EAGLE, 5 SHARP-SHINNED HAWKS ans 2 RED-TAILED HAWKS.
I was back in the saddle again today. Winds started out from the west which gave a decent early push. But he winds switched around to the north west around noon and things slowed down again. I ended the day with 159 BROAD-WINGED HAWKS, 14 SHARP-SHINNED HAWKS, 11 TURKEY VULTURES and an OSPREY carrying half a fish, below.
