The southern winds are continuing into yet another day. Over 200 raptors were tallied from the Cape May hawkcount today. A gorgeous Red-headed Woodpecker flew by the hawkwatching platform early in the morning. Following this uncommon visitor was a steady trickle of Sharp-shinned Hawks took place throughout the morning hours as well as the early afternoon. In addition to the raptors seen today there was a Northern Gannet and dark morph Parasitic Jaeger seen from the platform. You never know what you'll see from the Cape May Hawkwatch!
