Note today's count at Detroit River: 68,658 hawks!!!!!!

Jimmy, drew all of the notable watches to the NE of us, all stationed along the Appalachians, along which we believe many of our hawks use the uplifting wind currents to bring them straight to us. And he discovered that if you laid a ruler down, you could draw a line directly to us.  Hawk watching has developed along that line for a reason, because people see hawks migrating along that line. But we often wonder what other hawks come our way.  Impossible to know, as hard as we try, we only assume, guess, speculate.  But from Hawk Mountain all the way to Texas, Hawks on the move can be counted.  And there are huge numbers of them that make that great trek every year.  That's a good thing.

Check the next blog for today's count. Not what we hoped. Maybe tomorrow.
Keep looking up!!!
