Observation details
Steady stream of Hawks moving north over farm fields in groups of approx 15. They gained elevation in a vortex then headed north again out of sight. We were pretty sure they weren't coming past us twice. Most had two tone wings narrow with pointed tips. White throats, brown chests. A number of dark birds mixed in. There were 4 TUVU circling below them for comparison. My camera couldn't pick them up in a group shot against the glare of the grey sky.
