Howdy Brockwayphiles,
It is an exciting time here at the Keweenaw Raptor Survey. The U.P. may be still locked in snow and ice, but the start of the spring count is fast approaching and we have been a bustling to make sure everything is ready for our sophomore year of the project.
First the big announcement- We are delighted to welcome Arthur Green to KRS as our spring counter for this year. Arthur comes way of New York State and the Chestnut Ridge Hawk Count conducted by the Bedford Audubon Society.
Arthur Green- Spring 2011 KRS Hawk Counter
There have been other personnel changes this year as well. Joe Youngman has stepped down from the management committee with Dana Richter graciously filling the vacancy. We are indebted to Joe for all his hard work over the past two years, and are very thankful that Joe will continue on as a volunteer with the project. Dana had already been extremely helpful during the creation of KRS and continues to invaluable with his assistance to the committee. Head on over to the Who We Are page for more information about Arthur, Dana and the rest of the KRS team.
I have been able to do some updating of our website with results from the spring 2010 season on the Brockway Raptors page, as well as a 2010 photo gallery on our Media page.
Finally, this project is run solely through grants and donations from people like you.

Thank you for all and anything you are able to contribute to KRS to ensure we are able to conduct our planned 2012 Spring Season!
