Raptor Migration


Raptor migration site access -

Once again in 2009, Camp Pinnacle has agreed to issue permits to HMBC members to access to their site for September, October and November. In addition to a hawk-watching site, there are trails there that are good for observing fall warblers and other migrant songbirds. For a permit, please make out a check for $10.00 to Camp Pinnacle, and mail it to Gary Goodness at 15 Kelly Ave., Albany NY, 12203.

If you have questions, e-mail - goodness@nycap.rr.com  Thank you, Gary
