Hi everyone,

About an hour ago (10:15 a.m., September 26) I had an intermediate morph juvenile Swainson's Hawk heading south over Highway 3, approximately 5 kilometres west of Guilds (or about 5 km south of Blenheim).  The bird was slowly circling southward towards the lake so perhaps it will be spotted by hawk watchers to the west (Seacliff, Holiday Beach, etc.).

Thanks,
