Hi Lee Ann and everyone, Just a heads up, Friday looks excellent for hawkwatching up here at Braddock Bay (sw winds 10-15, hopefully they're more on the 15 end). Of course it is also Bird of Prey Days this weekend (though weather looks bad-NW winds and rain) and there will be many programs going on. If anyone is planning on coming up, Friday looks to be the best day (though if winds are right and the rain holds off Saturday doesn't look too bad either). We had an astounding 37000+ bird flight (34000+ Broad-wings) on Monday, so birds are really moving through. With the right conditions (and as I said, it looks favorable), we could have a decent flight Friday (probably not 37000 but a good flight nonetheless!!).
To check out programs and info about the hawkwatch, see www.bbrr.org and to see hawk count data from this year so far visit www.hawkcount.org/month_summary.php?rsite=353&PHPSESSID=c48b449861d24908bb07585f343d25a4 Hope to see many of you up here at Braddock Bay sometime soon!
