Meet CVWO's New Fall Staff!


Meet Eli Gross. Eli is our Hawkwatcher this year and he travelled all the way from San Francisco, CA to be here, witnessing one of the greatest concentrations of migrating raptors in the country. Eli has volunteered his time at various hawk watches over the past several years and his identification skills are very valued here, as many of the birds are just small silhouettes as they pass over the platform. He arrived at the beginning of September and will be here nearly every day until the end of November. If you get the chance, come out and see him at the platform!
This is Eli Gross, our hawkwatching fiend!
