Abstract

On 15 May 1982 while I was rope-dragging in search of Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura) nests, I discovered a Northern Harrier (Circus cyaneus) nest with six eggs on the Konza Prairie Research Natural Area in a watershed that had not been burned since the spring of 1980. The nest was the first Northern Harrier nesting record for Konza Prairie and for Geary County
