Cape Henlopen Spring Hawk Watch
The hawk watch this spring will start March 15th and run through May 15th. One of the few Atlantic coastal hawk watches counting raptors in the spring, Cape Henlopen offers an excellent opportunity for viewing the spring falcon migration.

Vistors and hawk watch volunteers are always welcome. For those new to the art of hawk identification, we invite you to visit the hawk watch Sunday mornings between 9:00 and 12:00. Volunteers are present who can help you fine tune your ID skills. For more information please contact Liz Dumont at 302-856-2289.
