former "Backyard Hawk Watch" at the east side of
ridge, Fairwood Ave, Hamilton section of Baltimore,
MD. My old home on White Ave next to the ridge from
1977 to 2001. Had watched hawks there from 1992 till
2001. Stop by there after Cylburn because I was
seeing hawks over Belair Rd and Beltway headed SW
toward my place during my deliveries on Belair Rd last
week. Cromwell Valley Park Hawkwatch is about 8 miles
from my old hawkwatch.
