James, I can=92t resist adding that, if you ever find yourself at a =
harrier nest containing nestlings, you will rediscover how noisy these =
usually silent raptors can be!  And one sex or the other (varies from =
pair to pair) will aggressively =93attack=94 you in horizontal flight =
but probably would not actually strike you?.  Cheers from Jim in =
Wolfville.

teaching three young how to hunt.  The female forced one young to the =
ground and all three young were on the ground at one point.  The adult =
was vocalizing the whole time.  For all of the northern harriers that =
I've observed over the years, this is the first time that I've heard one =
vocal.
