We are watching the first of the large kettles of broad-winged hawks
migrate, started as 2 single hawks about tree top level, quickly
escalated to 2 kettles of 100 + and a trail of them extending east as
far as the eye can see. Expect to hear about large kettles at Point
Pelee and possibly Holiday Beach as they travel west and south.
We are watching them just south of our home on Erie St. S. in Wheatley,
above the creek between us and the lake. Bittersweet sighting,
definitely indicates fall is arriving, love to see them but hate to see
summer end.
