HawkWatch - Saturday, September 2, 2017

Rain could not stop the determined raptors from migrating past the Cape May Hawkwatch. Although it was a dreary day, several Osprey and the first-of-the-season Peregrine Falcon pushed through. One partial albino Tree Swallow was spotted amongst the many pale-bellied dark-backed Tree Swallows. The beautiful Bunker Pond always has a treat of birds in store. 

Sunday’s forecast calls for clearer skies and west winds. Bring on the raptors. It will be interesting to see what raptors show up during these good migrating conditions. Hope to see you at the hawkwatch!
