Good day for raptors! Kettles of Broadwings and mixed kettles.

Lighthouse Point is BONKERS right now. Kettle after kettle after kettle of Broadwings, with plenty of other raptors too. Thousands? Probably thousands.

Bonkers indeed. Just shy of 5,000 Broad-winged Hawks today. Most kettles were in the 40-400 range, one group was over 700. Check HawkCount.org in a few hours. It'll take a bit of time to compile!
