Migrating raptors were few and far between but beautiful views, blue skies and great conversation about birds and hawk migration made for a wonderful outing on Balch Hill in Hanover. Twenty-one people attended along with one porcupine which spent 15 minutes grazing on milkweed in the meadow. The tally is below. American Kestrel - 1 Sharp-shinned Hawk - 1 Broad-winged Hawk - 1 Osprey - 2 Turkey Vulture - 6 plus crows, blue jays and flickers on the move and many monarchs!
