A stop at the Lower Nazareth Township Park retention pond produced 5 Greater Yellowlegs that were spooked a little when a Cooper's Hawk flew by.
On my way over to Green Pond, I turned off of Hecktown Road and noticed two birds interacting with each other. They both held their wings in a dihedral, but one was smaller than the other. I pulled over at an abandoned barn, got my binoculars on them, and realized that it was a Northern Harrier harassing a Turkey Vulture. The lighting was terrible for photos, but I was able to get a few showing the battle. It went on for about 15 minutes until they both parted ways.
