Last year over 1200 hawks were seen. Bald Eagles, Peregrine Falcons, and Merlins are always possible along with numerous Sharp-shinned Hawks, Kestrels and Ospreys. Displays and information are available to aid in hawk identification. A field trip leader will also be present to help first time birders. Binoculars are available, but visitors are advised to bring them if possible.
Many folk bring picnic lunches and blankets and chairs.
The event is free and open to the public. Lenoir Preserve is located at 19 Dudley Street, Yonkers, just off Broadway.
