Greenlaw Mountain Hawk Watch Counts

August 24, 2014

Osprey 3
Northern Harrier 1
Sharp-shinned Hawk 3
Broad-winged Hawk 8

Total: 15

Observation Period: 8:45AM-1:00PM

Weather: Hazy and warm with near calm conditions at the start followed by l=
ight and variable wind becoming south after noon.

Notes: Less than ideal conditions only produced a few migrants. However, it=
 was good to be back on the mountain and see a few hawks. Most of this day'=
s migrating raptors were well to the north of the mountain. Resident raptor=
s included Merlin, American Kestrel, Osprey, Broad-winged Hawk, Bald Eagle =
and Turkey Vulture. The skies over the watch were mostly quiet (due to near=
 calm conditions). Richard Tarn was a volunteer observer for much of the da=
y.

Non-raptors: A few Common Nighthawk passed the watch along with a few group=
s of swallows and lots of dragonflies.

Tomorrow: South winds through mid-week. No counts are planned. Cooler temps=
 and more favourable winds are likely for Thursday. A flight forecast will =
be posted in 2 or 3 days. Volunteers will be needed.

More details on today's counts, as well as, monthly totals and season total=
s can be found at hawkcount.org<http://hawkcount.org>.

This project takes place on private land. Please contact the project co-ord=
inator before visiting the site.

Primary support for this project comes from the New Brunswick Wildlife Trus=
t Fund. Additional support comes from individual donors and our volunteers.
