>About 500+ Broad-winged Hawks were seen this afternoon
>near Tontogany, OH. over our house in a single kettle.

.We had an incredible day in Perrysburg on Wed. After not having any luck in the morning or at lunch at the boat launch (end of Maple St) around 3:00 the Broad-wings started streaming in. In approx. 1-1 1/2 hrs I estimate we had 15,000-20,0000 Broad-wings. As far as the scope could see South to North kettels in the thousands were going over.
Then about 4:30-5:00 Some of th later birds started decending all around us and landing along the river. Six birds landed in the trees of the house we were working at.
