“Chasing Broad-winged Hawks from Canada to Columbia: Ecology of a Long-Distance Migrant” — Dr. Laurie Goodrich, Hawk Mountain Sanctuary

Description: During this in person talk, we will be joined by Dr. Laurie Goodrich, the Director of Conservation Science at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary to explore new discoveries made about broad-winged hawks, a secretive forest raptor. In 2014 migration monitoring data showed some populations of broad-winged hawks are declining in eastern North America. Hawk Mountain launched a new study to understand the full-life cycle ecology and migration of Broad-winged Hawks. Scientists have tracked broadwings from Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Canada to better understand migration patterns, threats, and survival and studied their nesting ecology in three states.
