Thoughts from the SMRR President
During the autumn months, the skies over
southeast Michigan are alive with tens of
thousands of hawks, eagles, falcons, and
other birds of prey. 
In the fall of 1983, the Lake Erie Metropark
Hawk Watch began recording this fall hawk
migration over Lake Erie Metropark and Pointe
Mouillee State Game Area. Incorporated as
a non-profit organization in 1998 under a
new name, Southeastern Michigan Raptor Research
(SMRR) continues to monitor one of the largest
hawk migration corridors in the western hemisphere. |
