I spent about an hour after lunch watching hawks ( On Cliff Island). 13 Sharp shinned, 9 kestrel, 2 Perigrine, 1 merlin, 4 bald eagles, 5 Harrier, 4 Osprey. This is typical for the island with this wind in mid September. I usually do not see many Buteos over the bay. Then 11 Broad wings came by. Then just after three pm I looked up from work I was doing and started counting - 47 Broad-wing followed soon by 75-80 more. I wonder how many passed when I wasn't looking. About half were adults and the rest juvenile.
