Dear Cobirders, This afternoon my brother and I took a hike up Mt Sanitas and were treated with quite a raptor migration spectacle. We observed some on the hike up, but most were seen from the summit (12:30-2:30 pm). 33 RT Hawk 7 Buteo sp. 3 Sharp-shinned Hawk 1 Cooper's Hawk 3 Accipiter sp. (likely Cooper's) 1 Golden Eagle 2 Northern Harrier 3 American Kestrels There were several RT Hawk groups of 3-5, some accompanied rising in the thermals by accipiters. It was very cool experience, the first time seeing so many migrating raptors from Mt Sanitas. Good birding, Thomas Heinrich Boulder, CO [email protected]
