Kettles of Broad-winged Hawks have been migrating over Thornhill today in good numbers. I’m in the Yonge Street and Steele’s Avenue area. They are specks in the sky, binoculars are a must. I have counted over 1100 Broad-winged Hawks since 10:00 am. Still continuing overhead as of 2:45 pm. Getting tougher to see in the nearly cloudless skies now.
Happy Hawkwatching! Murray Shields _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
