Fall Hawk Watch

Badrock Canyon
Description:
Enjoy the 4th Annual Fall Hawk Watch at Bad Rock Canyon on Sunday, October 11 with Flathead Audubon. From the comfort of your lawn chair and with experienced guides and quality spotting scopes, you can enjoy the annual eagle and hawk migration with Kathy Ross, Craig Hohenberger and others at the House of Mystery fishing access site along Highway 2, just west of Bad Rock Canyon, from noon to 4 PM.

At this time of year, expect to see Golden Eagles, Bald Eagles, hawks, accipiters, and possibly migrating or resident Peregrine Falcons.

This is the fourth annual Flathead Audubon simultaneous count for Hawk Watch at both the Bad Rock Canyon and Jewel Basin Hawk Watch sites. If weather permits, observations for Hawk Watch at both Bad Rock Canyon and Jewel Basin Hawk Watch sites will be compared in real time.

Bring binoculars, scopes, chairs, and dress for the weather. Contact Kathy Ross at 837-3837 for more information or just stop by during the afternoon.

You may also volunteer with the Jewel Basin Hawk Watch. If neither of these options works for you, stop by the House of Mystery fishing access
site any time on your own and you will likely see Golden Eagles and other raptors cross Bad Rock Canyon throughout the month of October.
