Lighthouse Point Park, New Haven, 10/14/17, 8:00am-3:30pm - 10 Migrating Hawks.  3 Sharp-shinned Hawk, 2 Cooper’s Hawk, 1 Red-shouldered Hawk, 2 American Kestrel, 1 Merlin, and 1 Peregrine Falcon. Weather refused to cooperate today... overcast sky with a north wind that was too light to push the hawks to the coast I guess.  Thanks to Ed Haesche, Ken Merrifield and Dave Peake-Jones for getting the hawk count total for the day into the double digits.
