Saturday With Visitors And Hawks To See!

Saturday 9 25 26 - After vieving a post from Holly Taylor, showing floods of Hawks pouring into Tennessee in Putnum County, I was definitely hopeful that Bill and friends would have soome good looks. There was a Nor'Easter off the East Coast this week, which flooded some of the hawk watch towns like Cape May. That kind of storm pushes large masses of birds to inland Migratory opportunities. Having folks up in Putnam County get to experience so many, was exciting to see. It honestly looked like a day at Corpus Christi, TX from her video. She zoomed in and out to give some perspective of what size clouds and how close the birds were respectively. It was awesome to have them close enough to capture on what appeared to be her phone?? But it was a great capture at any rate. Jimmy did a little research and found that up there is a state area, where Holly has reported from recently to another records keeping source, other than HMA. That was back on Sept 18th, I think he said. Boy am I being ambiguous. I am just trying to relay that he ckd it out to see if they were another hawk watch like ours. But that location, near Cookville, could have great numbers I am sure. Anyway it was a great indicator which raised my hopes for Bill and his guests to see hawks. And they did! So glad to see our long time friend Susan Schott up, and she brought her friend Kym Martin. Hello and welcome to her. But the visitors who were the most unlikely, were brought in by Iron Man Chattanooga, occuring on Sunday. So Happy to have Boise Idaho residents Toni and Lenore Holthuijzen! Thanks for making the Hawk watch one of your destinations! Soooo happy there were hawks for you to see: Here's the Report: (in 2 parts)
