A migrating Red-tailed Hawk at Mt. Peter Hawk Watch, 11\/08\/14.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I had a nice day at Mt. Pete today. The weather was nice – sunny, crisp, and cool without being too cold, and I had enough birds flying to keep it interesting. Thanks to Kyle Dudgeon and Bobby Kerr (whose young eyes helped to locate many\u00a0birds), and also to Rob Stone and Ajit and Liza Antony for their help. Here’s my report for the day:<\/p>\n
