Creston Raptor Quest

Please join Darcy Thomas in a quest to find winter-resident raptors as we travel the roads around Creston. Migration with its huge numbers of raptors passing through on their way south is nearing an end, but many raptors winter over in the Flathead Valley. We will focus on roadside identification of Red-tailed and Rough-legged Hawks in various plumages. We should see a few Bald Eagles, as the route takes us along the Flathead River. Other raptors such as accipiters and falcons are possible. Due to limited parking along the back roads, this trip is limited to three cars and carpooling will be necessary. Please sign up with Darcy Thomas at 406-407-8263 or darcy@flatheadaudubon.org.
