Date of sighting: 5-26-2010

Hi all,

While checking our waterbox yesterday, me and Joel saw a Broad-winged Hawk fly over us! This is at Simis Ranch, on Dechambeau Creek west of county park. I put a description on the ES audubon post. I never saw it land, but it was headed right towards the county park area. I saw it very well – looked like a second year bird. No records in the Gaines book, I have foggy memories of one reported a number of years back my Al DeMartini? I have not yet checked back on that record where/when… I know there are reports for Oasis, so it’s not new for Mono County but perhaps for the Mono Basin.

Keep an eye out on those hawks!!!
