This morning in Eagan, Dakota County just after turning off MN 55 onto MN 149 Leslie and I saw our first Broad-winged Hawk of the season. We got pulled off onto the shoulder to see a light adult Broad-winged Hawk soar in from the west on flat wings. We culd see that characteristic fanned dark tail with one wide white band, and a narrower white one as it soared overhead. That was a great way to get the morning started!
