Re: [cayugabirds-l] Northern harrier on Mt. Pleasant/Mineah fields

[Linda Orkin]

Very interesting because we saw a Northern Harrier this morning flying over the fields at the top of the arboretum along 366. Due to her size and strong appearance we guessed female although she was out of sight quickly heading East. Linda Orkin Ithaca New York On May 10, 2023, at 11:09 AM, Eveline V.

 couldn’t tell if male or female, but as I know we’ve observed a male + female in that area a couple of years ago, I do wonder whether a pair of harriers might not be breeding in the area.

 
A hopeful thought in any case.

[cayugabirds-l] Northern harrier on Mt. Pleasant/Mineah fields

While walking our dog this morning, we observed two Northern Harriers in the 
Mt. Pleasant/Mineah fields—one the field by the Mt. Pleasant/Mineah 
intersection, the other on the field further down the abandoned part of Mineah 
road.  I unfortunately couldn’t tell if male or female, but as I know we’ve 
observed a male + female in that area a couple of years ago, I do wonder 
whether a pair of harriers might not be breeding in the area.

A hopeful thought in any case.
