2003 HMANA Conference - March 27-30, 2003:  It was awesome! Did you make it to the conference? No worries, if not. I've got you covered.  I never can take just one photo.  For this gig, I took several hundred and finally got a bunch of them sorted, tweaked, polished and beaten into shape for some slide shows:

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!
