Hi all,
Only had time to briefly bird one of my locales, so I opted for Parklawn Picnic area off
off Viers Mill Rd. Not much activity in the woods, but as I was looking at a Rose breasted Grosbeak, I saw many brown specks in the sky. They were Broad winged Hawks-hundreds of them!! They were as high as an airliner and moving very quickly. For a few minutes it was an incredible sight. I'm sure joggers passing by were wondering what I was staring intently at.
