Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Swainson's Hawks in Borrego Springs
This evening over 100 Swainson's Hawks dropped into Borrego Springs. If the
predicted morning wind is slightly under 7 mph, the hawks may not leave
until 7 or 8 a.m. Occasionally we have observed them in flight with first
light. They could also drop into flower fields to feed on insects. If you
arrive in Borrego Springs early, drive north on DiGiorgio Rd to the count
site (2.8 miles North of Palm Canyon Drive). Hawkwatch leaders can help you
find the hawks.
