Hawk Watch @ Cape Henlopen State Park

Date:

Thursday, September 1, 2022

The Cape Henlopen Hawk Watch (CHHW) gets under way every fall (September 1 to November 30). CHHW is organized under the Hawk Migration Association of North America. Volunteers, many of them members of the Sussex County Bird Club, count and report the numbers of passing raptors, including: Red-Tailed Hawks, Red Shouldered Hawks, Broad Winged Hawks, Cooper's Hawks,  Sharp Shinned Hawks, Bald and Golden Eagles, Turkey Vultures, Black Vultures, Kestrels, Merlins, and Peregrine Falcons. Now and then something out of the ordinary may appear, such as a Mississippi Kite or a Swallow Tailed Kite.
