Located at the SE corner of Lake Ontario, Onondaga Audubon Society has employed a professional hawk counter here since 1979. The primary responsibility is to conduct a hawk count and submit records to the HMANA online database daily. Also interacting with visitors to the hawk watch is important, as well as communicating online about the spring migration at Derby Hill. A final report is required. Previous experience as a primary or secondary hawk counter is desirable. Equivalent field experience is acceptable. This is an excellent opportunity for an energetic individual working along a career path in biology, ecology, conservation or allied field where this experience will be beneficial. You'll need your own binoculars, spotting scope, and transportation. Housing is provided right at the hawk watch and includes a computer with internet access. A $3000 stipend is paid for the season: 1 March through 31 May 2008.
