VOL – Hawkwatch at Smith Point

John and I will be counting at GCBO’s Smith Point Hawk Watch again this
year. John will lead the counts on October 10 and 24,
and November 7. If you are interested in joining us on the tower any of those days, we would
love to have you. I expect that we will see the most raptors on October 10
but most days at Smith Point have great birding. Here is a link to their
HawkCount page: https://www.hawkcount.org/month_summary.php?rsite=563.

It is a bit of a hike to Smith Point but well worth it, especially if you
can carpool with a friend. We will be counting from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm (but
you do not need to be there the whole time). You would need to bring your
usual hawk watch gear (binocs, chair, hat, sunscreen, water) plus snacks and
a sack lunch. There is a clean porta-potty on site.
