This cache is located along Martin Count’s Hawk’s Hammock Nature and Equestrian Trail System, and can be accessed via the newly created Public Access & Parking area at the end of Green Farms Road.Since its namesake is that of Hawks, I thought I’d dedicate a series of caches to some of the most common hawks of North & South America.

The Broad-winged Hawk (Buteo platypterus), is a crow-sized hawk and is the smallest member of the buteos seen in North America. This unassuming bird of prey is found in forested areas. It is commonly seen along highways and roads, perched on utility lines, watching for any movements in the grasses or on the forest floors. This particular hawk is known for its large numbers and flocks during its migration period. These flocks are called "kettles", in which hundreds of Broad-winged Hawks can be seen at one time. Numbering in the hundreds of thousands, when all the flocks are counted at the end of their fall and spring migration periods.
T-ratings are roughly based on length of hike. There’s virtually no bushwhacking, (At least not when placed)
