Today, an adult Broad-winged Hawk was observed near the tail of a stream of 55 Turkey Vulture that were passing directly over the watch platform at Chestnut Ridge Hawkwatch--located just outside Mount Kisco (Region 9)--at ~12:45 EST. This bird was flying high enough to be almost undetectable without a binocular, and would have been too easy to miss had it opted to go it alone. Fortunately (for us), it didn't.
