Hawk Cliff, the longest operating Hawk Watch in Ontario, needs more counters to cover weekdays from September 2 through November 15 this fall. If you have experience counting raptors at Grimsby, Toronto, Oshawa, Holiday Beach (or anywhere else) and can spare a day or two (or even more), we could use your help. As with all hawk watches, we can't promise that every day will be a good one, but on single days in the past few years we've had as many as 99,000 Broad-winged Hawks,50 Osprey, 39 Peregrine Falcons, Bald Eagles and Golden Eagles. Please check out the Hawk Cliff website for further details http://www.ezlink.on.ca/~thebrowns/HawkCliff/index.htm Hawk Cliff is located on the shore of Lake Erie 12km south of St. Thomas and 8km east of Port Stanley, about 35 minutes south of Hwy. 401. Mike Street, President of the Niagara Peninsula Hawkwatch, is asking members of NPH to help out since they may live closer to Hawk Cliff than other experienced counters . If you would like to count raptors at Hawk Cliff please contact me by email at the address above or the telephone numbers below. Thanks to the Coordinators of ONTBIRDS and BIRDHAWK for authorizing this message. Thanks very much Shay Redmond London, Ontario. Phone # 519.453.4288.
