Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Swainson's Hawks in Borrego Springs
On Sunday December 21, 6 very early Swainson's Hawks were observed in
Borrego Springs. It's a reminder that the hawk season in Borrego will begin
in late February through mid-April. If you would like to be added to the
special ALERT system that is triggered when more than 100 Swainson's Hawks
roost overnight you can go to the ALERT site to register. The alert is sent
with instructions to observe the continued migration the following morning.
We now have well over 500 folks on the system. The address to register is
<hawkwatchborregosprings...>
Also note that the documentary about the hawkwatch will be shown at the San
Diego Bird. Festival February 27, 2026 at-2pm.
