The on-and-off rains kept the hawks low, but a few of us were able to enjoy a number of Rough-legged Hawks both perched in the trees alongside Hall's Rd. and across the wetland from the CMRW platform.
A N.Shrike was picked up flying into a tree a short distance down from Victoria St. in the noonhour time. An unofficial migrating raptor count for Oct.27, up to 1pm was 18--1 Cooper's , 7 Rough-leggeds, 2 Harriers, 8 Red-taileds. Exit 401 at Salem, south to Bayly, east through LakeRidge, to the first street, south down Hall's to the second roadside parking area. Doug Lockrey, coordinator CMRW
