I had just arrived at the south end of the East Pond of Jamaica Bay National Wildlife Refuge and as I finished setting up many birds blasted off and I wondered if I'd caused them to flee. It did not seem like it was me as if it were me they probably would have left sooner. Then I spotted this Northern Harrier illuminated by the setting sun as it made two passes over the wading birds.
Comments and suggestions welcome,
Morris
