Between Kennebunk, Maine and Middleton, Mass yesterday on Rt 95, we saw -- 23 Redtailed Hawks.
Normally, if we'd see 5 or 6 over those 130 miles of highway down & back, that would be considered a good day... But 23 sightings total?! Wow!!!
![Exclamation :!:](./images/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif)
OK sure, some of the 11 hawks we saw on the way back north in the mid-afternoon were probably the same birds of prey we had seen earlier in the morning, but still, we thought the numbers were amazing!
When I was a kid, we wouldn't see any on that trip... (Due to all the issues from DDT I'm guessing...)
Cheers!
