Today 85 Swainson's Hawks migrated. Several kettles of hawks were observed. This evening (Monday March 16) we had a late arrival of around 15 to 20 hawks. They may have touched down south of the date farm. Best viewing may be around 1 mile north of Palm Canyon Drive on Borrego Valley Rd. A hawk captured last spring and fitted with a radio transmitter is only a few hundred miles south of Borrego Springs. "Betsy" may arrive along with many other hawks either tomorrow or Wednesday evening. Will hopefully will find her among other hawks. Betsy has travelled a great distance from Argentina-over 4,000 miles! Hal Cohen Borrego Springs
