Hawk Cliff - A lot of erosion has changed the cliffs over the years. In the 1980's, part of the cliff where I use to stand on for hawk watching has fallen into the lake. A big chunk of it! There was a cliff and to the right was an area of grasses and wildflowers. There was no fence...it was a lovely place. There would be song birds and butterflies there. There is a fence there now. To me, it looks run down and trampled on. People that are there are not birders, they bring their dogs in. It's very sad. So very different from years ago.
