24 March 11 A.M.
We traveled 40 miles of hawking, and observed ZERO raptors in flight. The weather conditions were outstanding. 3 raptors were perched. 2 were Red-tailed Hawks. The third was probably a Red-tailed Hawk. I am reporting on what I observed, not on statistical probability. I did not report the hawk as a probable Red-tail Hawk, relating to the height of the perched hawk. Or the habitat or the time of day, or the season of the year. Hawk watchers and birders should always back-up their suggestions with the facts that are in the NOW!
