Scenes from the State Line Hawkwatch

IMG_0440
I volunteered to help count at the State Line Hawkwatch in Alpine on Tuesday morning. Thanks to a great bunch of hawk-eyed raptor watches, I think I recorded most of the migrating raptors that passed by.

As luck would have it, the big Broad-wing push came the afternoon before. We did have a nice variety of raptors, which I was too busy finding and counting to photograph.

I did take a few shots later –  of the lookout (above) and local Common Raven, Bald Eagle and Woodchuck (below).

The cafe is open for outdoor orders, and the Porto-Sans are there if you really, really have to go.

    The hawk watch is located at the State Line Lookout off the Palisades Interstate Parkway. Parking and admission are free.
    I just discovered some maps say the location is Closter…. A bit confusing.
