MISSION STATEMENT

The Corpus Christi Hawkwatch is a local, non-profit organization created to support local on-going hawkwatch efforts and to bring educational programs on raptor migration and conservation to Coastal Bend Area schools and community groups. Part of that education program includes gathering information on all aspects of raptor migration at our watch site.

As part of that effort, the local-based non-profit Corpus Christi Hawkwatch is sponsoring a 2009 spring hawkwatch running from March 25th through April 14th. Official counters led by local Watch Co-Coordinators Dane Ferrell and Libby Even will man the platform from 9am to 5pm every day of the spring watch.

The watch is, as always, open to the public and families are encouraged to participate. Bring water, chairs, bug spray and sunscreen with your binos and field guides, and dress for the weather.

A quick note about the information on this site:  reports from 2001 forward include updated and correct link references to this permanent domain as well as other links referenced in the text of those sections. In the interest of maintaining the original flavor and integrity of the archival sites (year 2000 and older), most, if not all, of the original information and content has been left intact and only navigational links within this domain have been updated. Consequently, some or all links to outside sites in those sections and/or pages may not work correctly. Just be aware of this as you cruise through the older sections, and thank you for your interest in the phenomenon of hawk watching in Texas!
