Over 1000 Broad-winged Hawks counted in one day! :hawk: :wow: Title: Re: Putney Mountain Hawk watch video Post by: Colleen T on 21-Sep-09, 09:16:21 AM :thanx: for posting that, Donna. I've been participating in the hawk count on Mount Wachusett for the past 5 years and when I try to explain what it looks like to some people they don't really get it. This will help a lot. We had a pretty good year this year, but not as good as last year. We had a 5000 day last year. The best this year was a 2200 day last week. Lots of fun!
