The spring 2011 issue of Hawk Migration Studies will soon be in members’ hands. I’m always relieved when the last of the material arrives and is finished. I tell people that I give myself a week off before I will start thinking about the fall issue of HMS.
Since I’m not yet ready to think about the fall issue, I’ll give you a preview of what’s in store for the spring issue:
• Reestablishing the Curry Hammock hawkwatch in the Florida Keys. This site historically sees more Peregrine Falcons than anyplace else.
• What to do if an industrial wind power farm is planned near your hawkwatch.
• Tips from a few of the successful hawkwatches that you can use to help increase volunteers and visitors at your own site…as well as things that you can’t change that can still affect your site’s success. Based on a HMANA survey.
• What you missed if you didn’t join HMANA’s October trip to Costa Rica for hawkwatching and birding.
• The upcoming Northeast Hawkwatch conference
• Red-tailed Hawk sexing—it’s not as simple as size.
• Some great raptor writings from a talented, young counter, Henry Waters
• Kudos to Chimney Rock and Kiptopeke hawkwatches for reaching (and soon to reach) some big milestones.
• Lots of outstanding raptor photos.
• And much, much more…
This is a great spring issue, packed with lots of articles and photos. If you’re not a HMANA member please join now so you don’t miss out.
