During a small prescribed burn in Murray County today we had 1, then 3, the 6, then 9, then 12, then 15 hawks soaring over the burn. At least 13 of the hawks were Swainson's. One was a redtail, one was too distant given the conditions.
In my experience; Swainson's Hawks do like fire, but I do not think I have ever seen this many on any burn let alone a small 1 hour burn. Brad Bolduan Windom ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
