My Column: State Line Hawk Watch
A view of State Line Lookout and the Hudson River beyond in Alpine. By Jim WrightSpecial to The Record |…
Julie McCall reports;
"Fairly quiet weekend at The Celery Farm. Yesterday had a remaining Bufflehead, a Ruddy, and 1 Hooded Merganser. Today the Bufflehead seemed to be gone. 4 Hooded Mergansers (1 drake), an immature Harrier, 1 American Tree Sparrow, and 1 Eastern Phoebe surprising the heck out of me. Seems late, is it just me?
"I saw no Eastern Bluebirds, but it definitely wasn't for lack of trying."
(Thanks, Julie!)
