We had an other beautiful morning for the guided Harrier Meadow walk yesterday.
Our nine participants were rewarded with a Bald Eagle, a Merlin, three other raptor species, an Orange-crowned Warbler and six species of ducks.
The last Harrier Meadow walk of the year is next Wednesday, Dec. 10, and there is still plenty of room.
We are still hoping to see Rough-legged Hawks, Snow Buntings, and the usual raptor fest. Just e-mail us.
