Migration Week!

We kicked off International Hawk Migration Week with a great Merlin flight on Monday (9/21). We had a total of 389 Merlins for the day and over 700 total raptors. The majority of the flight was low and fast right over the treetops in the afternoon, which made for a very fun day for Eli and Graham up on the platform.
Thanks to Hawk Migration Association of America, where we send our hawkwatch data, we are celebrating Hawk Migration Week.
