Subject: [MBBIRDS] BROAD-WINGED HAWK- Hwy17/Summit
Hi Birders,
After the big push of Broad-winged Hawks up at GGRO Hawk Hill the past
couple days I was determined to find one in SCZ. I did some hawk watching
from Summit off Hwy 17 and there was a nice movement of raptors (very high)
in a N to S direction with the ideal conditions with a scattering of
clouds.

The first kettle I got on was 4 Turkey Vultures with a light juvenile
BROAD-WINGED HAWK (15:20)! A nice movement of Turkey Vultures with an
Osprey and Sharp-shinned Hawk, all during an an hour in the late afternoon.
All the migrating raptors were on the same route and altitude.

Here are the pics: eBird Checklist - 24 Sep 2025 - Summit/Highway 17 Hawk

Good birding!
