Broad-winged Hawks can be
found on campus throughout the summer months. These birds are known for
migrating in massive congregations ("kettles") that sometimes number over
1000 birds. The photo at left was taken in the woods at Montague Village,
where the majority of observations from the summer of 2008 were recorded. The
nearby Blue Ridge Parkway is a reliable place to locate this species in
summer and during the migration period. |
