Corpus Christi, TX Hawk Watch

I've been keeping watch on the daily hawk counts from the hawkwatch at Hazel Bazemore Park in Corpus Christi, TX. The numbers have been pretty impressive. This is peak Broad-winged Hawk migration and they funnel through in huge numbers down there. On Saturday, they counted over 97,000 Broad-wingeds! That's a spectacle I'd love to see. Yesterday, they also tallied two Aplomado Falcons! How cool! Check out the season totals below:
