Today a half dozen participants from the Mascoma Chapter of New  
Hampshire Audubon enjoyed a mid day sampling of the NH Audubon hawk  
watch conducted from a north-facing scenic viewpoint near the summit  
of Pack Monadnock in southern NH. Cool winds from the northwest were  
strong enough to blow off unguarded hats. Sunshine was frequent under  
partly cloudy skies. Dozens of hawks were seen, with Broad-winged and  
Sharp-shinned being the most numerous as might be expected for the  
date. A variety of other species were also sighted including Ospreys,  
Goshawk, Cooper's Hawks, Merlins, and American Kestrels. Shortly after  
noon, a rehabilitated juvenile Broad-winged Hawk was successfully  
released back into the wild.
A full report on today's sightings at Pack Monadnock can be  
anticipated to appear by tomorrow on the NH statewide bird news  
listserve.
