Abstract: As part of an ongoing raptor management program, 45 km of 345-kV transmission lines were surveyed from 5 June to 31 September 1983 to determine diurnal and nocturnal raptor use patterns. Golden eagles and red-tailed hawks perched mostly on upper, outer sections of towers at day and roosted on lower, inner sections at night.
