migration of raptors


Yesterday was a beautiful day, sunny and warm. While out in the back I saw four raptors gliding high in the sky over the small hill behind our house. One of them was way up there, barely visible. I remember going to see the raptors congregate around Mt. Philo a year ago. I remember watching about a dozen of them calling and careening around on the north side of the mountain. I know that they favor mountains in their annual migration southward, but I wasn't sure why. Here's what I found.
