That's hundreds of thousands of migrating hawks and other birds of prey over Lake Erie Metropark, making their way south for their annual journey during the next three months. Last year, more than a half million of those passed overhead.
Turkey vultures make a big count, too.
Special speakers and live exhibits Saturday include Judy Yerkey, who will talk about Detroit's peregrine falcons, and Joe Rogers, who will present stories and facts as he displays live birds. This event brings a rare opportunity to see everything from a tiny saw whet owl to a turkey vulture. Toledo Botanical Garden. Fall Plant Sale, Sat.-Sun., Toledo Botanical Garden.
