September 17, 18, and 19, 2010
Duluth, Minnesota

The Hawk Ridge Nature Reserve in Duluth, Minnesota is one of North America's best places to experience the spectacle of the fall raptor migration. Migrating birds, including raptors and passerines, concentrate in impressive numbers at the western tip of Lake Superior. Some travel from as far away as the Arctic and pass through Duluth on their way to their wintering areas to the south. Reluctant to cross a large body of water, migrants funnel down the North Shore along the ridges that overlook the city. On a good day, visitors may see hundreds—even thousands—of birds flying by!

Come and celebrate the migration at our annual Hawk Weekend!

More details to come Summer 2010.

All activities at the Hawk Ridge Main Overlook are open to the public; everything else requires registration. For more details about Hawk Weekend, contact us at 218.428.6209 or mail@hawkridge.org.
