Hawk-Watching in Your Backyard

P1010058-1
My latest column for The Record is about a couple in Ridgefield Park who have an annual hawk watch in their backyard. They have seen as many as 1,000 raptors in an afternoon.

Read the column for their secrets to tallying a high count — link is here.

Hint: The next few days are prime time — best to head up to Mount Peter or head over to State Line lookout or Montclair soon!

Pictured here are Steve and Linda Quinn. Steve is an artist with the American Museum of Natural History, and his website is definitely worth a visit. Link is here.
