Tammy and I went up to check out the Short-eared Owls and were handsomely 
rewarded with both Owls and Harriers. Tammy saw an Owl/Harrier 
confrontation with the Owl knocking the prey out of the Harrier's grasp 
and catching it in midair as it fell to the ground.  She is a new birder 
and I, of course, was looking at the exact opposite field and missed it.

We also saw a flock of 6 Eastern? Meadowlarks at the observation deck on 
St Rt 95.  This was exciting as I didn't see a one this spring or summer.
All and all a great afternoon of birding.
