Title: Hawk Ridge Platform Ribbon Cutting (MN)
Post by: Donna on 11-Sep-10, 09:00:47 AM
A special ceremony today officially opened a new observation platform at the Hawk Ridge Nature Preserve in Duluth.  The new platform will provide great views of migratory birds as they make their way south over the next several weeks.  Major funding fo the viewing platform was provided by the Minnesota Power Foundation.  Hawk Ridge Director, Janelle Long, says the platform helps to safely keep people off the road and provides visitors with a great vantage point for watching the average 94 thousand raptors and other birds that pass over the ridge along Lake Superior each fall.  :o
