A dozen of us had a memorable day at Conneaut today. Weather was perfect and 
raptors were moving. Three best results:
1) First ever Black Vulture for this hawkwatch site
2) Beautiful dark-phase Red-tailed Hawk 
3) 381 Red-shouldered Hawks (our old record was 170)

Also, 1060 Turkey Vultures, 280 Red-tailed Hawks, 14 Rough-legged Hawks, 7 Bald 
Eagles, 8 N. Harriers, 23 Cooper's Hawks, 22 Sharp-shinned Hawks, 14 Am. 
Kestrels and 3 Merlins, plus 2 possible Peregrine Falcons

Would love to see totals from Maumee Bay if a hawkwatch was conducted there 
today...
