[EBB Sightings] MYSTERY HAWKS and introduction

I assumed the birds were migrating when I saw them, and I have been in 
Joaquin Miller a few times since then and have not seen that many 
Red-tails together, so it is certainly possible or probable that they 
were different birds than those seen by Sylvia.  But the coincidence of 
seeing five juveniles in the same area made me wonder.
