Dear NYSBirds-L, I'm pleased to announce on behalf of Saw Mill River Audubon of Chappaqua, NY that Anne Swaim will be holding her excellent Raptors for Rookies lecture next Saturday at Westmoreland Sanctuary. This presentation is a superb introduction for the neophyte hawkwatcher; no prior birdwatching experience required! The days following this workshop bring thousands of migrating hawks through our area each year, so please pass word of this lecture on to friends and family who've yet to discover this exciting dimension of autumn.
The lecture will be held Saturday, September 12th, 2 p.m in the museum of Westmoreland Sanctuary, 260 Chestnut Ridge Rd, Mount Kisco, NY. There is no fee, although registration is requested (but not required) to attend. Please email me or call Westmoreland Sanctuary at 914.666.8448 for more information. With Kind Regards, \\ Arthur -- Arthur W.
