Scott Harris spent 17 months chasing 53 Raptors across 34 states—his version of a Raptor Big Year. *RaptorQuest* is all about his adventures, misadventures, successes, and failures. - Our finale will be another challenging bird quiz designed and presented by the New York State Young Birders Club. Have paper and pen ready! This Zoom gathering is open to the general public. All are welcome. Come encourage us with your presence and be encouraged yourself by spending some time online with the New York state birding community. We hope to see you online on September 15th!
