What a day!  The unofficial total from the Main Overlook is over 100,000
hawks for the day, of which over 99% were Broad-winged Hawks.  This is more
than twice the previous one day total of 49,615 (18 Sep 1993).

During this spectacular flight we also recorded the 2 millionth raptor to
fly over Hawk Ridge.

Happy Hawkwatching!
Debbie
