Broad-winged Hawk Nest Search

On May 3-4th 2014, Millersville Biology students set out to help Hawk Mountain in a search for Broad-winged Hawk nests.  Students camped overnight on the Mountain.  The following students participated in this effort: Meta Griffin, Vince, Juel Shamitko, Kyle Brady and Kayla Branyan (not shown are Toni Ann Vidal and Jennifer Teson).  The students found multiple nest structures and spotted a few hawks overhead.  In addition, students got to see a good number of migratory birds during the day and different species of salamanders at night. 

The staff at Hawk Mountain were great hosts and made the students feel very welcome.  A pizza party social was also held, and Millersville students got the opportunity to mingle with Hawk Mountain Interns whom come from all over the globe.
