Watched an adult male Northern Harrier work the fields around the Missisquoi
National Wildlife Refuge Headquarters (Tabor Road, Swanton) Thursday
afternoon. MNWR staff reported killdeer nearby.(Just returned this week) But
they were scarce, probably because of the harrier. Lots of redwings down by
the Winooski River. flocks of 40-50, all very active and vocal.
