*It is the ultimate goal of HawkWatch International to maintain the sustainability of the organization and the integrity of our data.  Therefore, in light of the recent economic downturn and other trends in conservation science funding, we have made the difficult decision to operate fewer raptor migration monitoring sites.  As of the 2010 fall season, we will no longer be performing fall migration counts in the Wellsville Mountains in Utah and Lipan Point in Arizona.  Lipan’s sister site, Yaki Point, will continue operations.  In Montana, our partner Montana Audubon, will manage the monitoring at the Bridger Mountain site and share the data with HWI.  Some banding operations may be scaled back as well.

We would like you to know that we appreciate your ongoing support, and welcome your comments and questions.
