Hi everyone,
With all the buzz about the California Bird Atlas I figured it was time for me to chime in. My name is Georgia and I'm a master's student at the University of Missouri. I'm about to begin my second season of Northern Harrier fieldwork in the Sacramento Valley/Delta-Yolo region. I'll be surveying for and monitoring harrier nests for my project with CDFW to assess the breeding population in the region. My team and I have many properties lined up for our searching, but if anyone comes across any harriers acting suspicious in the next couple of months (sky-dancing, alarm calling, prey passing/delivering, carrying nesting material, etc.), please let me know. Our study area spans from approximately Sac NWR and Upper Butte Basin WA down to Galt. Feel free to contact me via email or cell. Thanks and happy birding!
