Further to Ron Fleming's update, we saw a male Northern Harrier flying westward across the intersection of Highway 48 & Vivian Rd on Jan 28 while we were on our way to Keswick to look for Snowy Owls. We found only one, near the river west of the white trailer at the south end of Yonge St. It was perched on some red flatbed trailers at the west side of the field. It was never spooked by the heavy snowmobile traffic just behind. Also at least 3 large flocks of Snow Buntings west of Yonge, but nothing mixed in with them.
