Bruce Lee and Ann.  Thankyou.


On Septermber 24th we were happy to introduce TV and media personality Kevin Frankish to our hawk watch and the birds that we see each fall.  For those of you that missed it, Kevin was actively learning and filming (with his cell phone) everything he could.  Shortly after arriving the bird that he came to see just so happened to come along, a Bald Eagle.  Unfortunately it wasn't one of those jaw-dropping eye-level flybys.....it was high up...high high up...but he did see it.  The visit with Kevin was alot of fun and included a group photo that was part of the post for that day.  Kevin had explained to us that he was going to use the videos that he was collecting on his phone for a small project that he was working on.  He just finished the project today and has kindly allowed me to share it with everyone.  It really captures the hawk-watching experience at Rosetta nicely and conveys a very important message.  Thankyou Kevin, please visit us again when you can.

Weather Prediction:
Watch tomorrow afternoon after the rain as the wind shifts to N and NW.  It should bring some birds along.....maybe.

See you at the park,
Walter
