East Mound of the restored landfill just south of the intersection of
Richmond Hill Road and Richmond Avenue - NYC Sanitation Department Depot.
The previously reported Swainson's Hawk found by Dick Veit yesterday,
reappeared at 12:09 P M and soared over the grassy hillside of the east mound
before retreating back into the reclaimed landfill. It was observed
yesterday in the morning and afternoon flying over the mound.
The best place to park is in the Fed Ex parking lot at Richmond Hill
Road. Do not drive into the Sanitation Department property and park there.
There are large barricades and one can view the east mound and pond from
here.
