Hawks are flying today! The cool clear air has brought them and the crows are loudly telling us so. Slightly more impressive than a robin, sharp-shinned hawks are swooping in fast spirals just above the spruce tops tanking up on any small birds they might catch just before the hawks launch themselves across the bay. The crow call for this by the way is a short sharp cry,”HAWK ! HAWK! HAWK!” For the next month on many of bright blue days you may enjoy this spectacle if you are alert.
You can also go to the hawk watch page to see the daily tallies for the count atop Cadillac Mountain- or go there in person where you will find the rangers and volunteers will be only too glad to point out the various species. Don’t miss the fun!
