With only six weeks to go before the normal hawk migration season begins, the Niagara Peninsula Hawkwatch is starting to organize and schedule counters for the 2006 season.
Counters are needed from 8AM-4PM Standard time each day from March 1 to May 15 inclusive (except for days of extreme weather). Birders with experience in counting hawks, or interested in learning to become a counter, are welcome to join our team. Please contact me at the email address given. Thank you.

Dean Ware is reporting from the field that at 3:00pm today he found a Slaty-Backed Gull at the Wheatley Habour. He is now chasing the bird to the Hillman Marsh with Alan Wormington. The bird has also been recorded with a camera. Good Luck! Pamela Cole for Dean Ware.
