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. [...]]]></description>
