This year over 12,000 raptors were recorded flying over the hawkwatch on April 25th-- 10,000 of them were Broad-Wings. You get some really amazing looks at them, it's truly spectacular.<br /><br />and thanks for the site recommendation, I'm always looking for new places to go birding!birdsonthebrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01945385650818746604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3770651210715066081.post-67519252763228528432009-07-20T13:50:54.724-04:002009-07-20T13:50:54.724-04:00I may have said this before, but I love how you in...I may have said this before, but I love how you include your thoughts and ID musings in your posts.
