NG of San Diego

Why is it that all of the NG entering Texas have to go completely through Texas in order to get into Mexico. Answer: They don't! Some of the NG entering Texas never get to areas such as Hazel- Basemore Hawk Watch. They do a "drop off" into areas such as Livingston, Tyler, Rockport, Fulton, Goose Island State Park, and Aransas N. W. R., and spend time as a winter resident, and will not migrate out until probably late May or early April.
The same conditions exist in San Diego (SD). The NG entering Southern Coastal California do not have to go all the way into Mexico. NG can be found in the town of Carlsbad, Ca., to the Mexican border; in the town of La Mesa, the wild Animal Park, Mission Bay and the surrounding hills, the Zoo, Point Loma, and Tijuana Slough.
NG can be observed in Edison, an area just east of Bakersfield. Bakersfield should be a hot spot for Goshawks.
