Cape May Raptors Up Close & Personal

I visited Cape May, N.J. over the weekend of October 26, 2014 with Bob Lewis.  The area is renowned for its birding and its hawk watch/observatory.  Visitors were educated with some up close and personal viewing of the some of the migratory birds as can be seen in the following:
