A CityIslandBirds walk to the southern zone of Pelham Bay Park in the Bronx this morning yielded three very close Northern Harriers, a Red-tailed Hawk and a cooperative and nearby American Kestrel. These raptors frequent the landfill regularly this time of the year. We watched for an hour as they soared overhead and nearby. Another notable species was a single Blue-grey Gnatcatcher. Horned Grebe, Bufflehead, Scaup, Brant and Mallards were in the bay. Jack Rothman www.cityislandbirds.com --
