SUMMARY:Fall Hawk Migration Extravaganza at Greene Valley Forest Preserve Overlook/Fisher Point
DESCRIPTION:No limit on number of participants.Let’s gather at the top of the overlook\, right after the gate is unlocked at 11:00am. We’ll have a short site orientation\, explain hawk watch techniques\, and do a quick review of Hawk Migration Association of North America’s Hawk ID sheet. We picked these two weekends to give us the best chance to witness together the spectacle of Broad-winged Hawk migration. At the end of September\, Broadwings\, leaving the US\, start passing by hawk watches in large numbers\, depending on wind and timing. \n\n\n\nPlease review the club’s Hawk Watch/Buteos talk\, https://youtu.be/ltXn5knJmyc?si=LchgvzD8BIXqPU1y.There is a second club talk on the other families of hawks-accipiters\, falcons\, eagles-that is also helpful. https://youtu.be/z-x00gRQvlI?si=KLS2-RO3BuSiMQhG. We’ll have raptor field guides on hand as well. If you don’t already have the free HawkWatch International Raptor ID mobile phone app\, this is worthwhile for the descriptions\, photos\, and\, especially\, the videos that show flight styles of different hawks. \n\n\n\nPlease bring a chair\, hat\, water\, and a sack lunch or snacks. There is no shade here\, so\, a solar umbrella may be useful to you. It can also be much cooler than at ground level\, especially with northerly winds; so please bring layers.Please RSVP to Vicky for any combo of dates so you can get an email update on weather conditions/Broadwing movement/potential site closure\, and for the handouts.( NOTE: If you’re unable to join us for these event dates\, please note\, you can still visit the hawk watch any weekend during September and October\, from 11:00am to 6:00pm.)Leader: Vicky Sroczynski\,  vsroczynski@comcast.net
