TRAILING THE HAWKS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

BY DON DOUCETTE<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I must comment to you that Friends of the Ten Mile and Bucklin Brook successfully concluded this morning our three part Saturday morning walk\/talk series: WHERE IS BUCKLIN BROOK?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Of particular note was our successive red tail hawk observations throughout the urbanized Bucklin Brook Watershed – extremely active hawk activities, up close, personal and exciting!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The hawk action centered around these north-to-south urban locations in Pawtucket, Rhode Island:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Oak Grove Cemetery – wide vista, continuously active hunting.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

McCoy Stadium – one intense score board hawk stalking a mourning dove flock.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Dunnell Lane Industrial Park – using an obsolete concrete industrial silo as a strike zone, pigeons.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hank Soar Athletic Complex – an extremely active and affectionate pair team-stalking pigeons and other targets of opportunity<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

South of these locations abutting the Seekonk River, active osprey near the Bucklin Point Waste Treatment<\/span> Plant.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Although urbanized and abused, this tiny watershed continues to display an individual and steadfast identity with this singular and primary plus factor, a wide-ranging wild bird population well worth preservation through constant observances and support.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

This is its saving grace apart from the years of disgusting watershed abuse hoisted upon this vital and valued natural resource.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

From the field and the heart: tough love, but true – hawks love and appreciate the Bucklin Brook Watershed.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
