It was sitting low and quiet on a knoll not more than 10 feet from the side of the road. Northern Harriers kept it wary. It was first seen and heard with its rattle call a little further in the field but kindly pointed out to us by other observers. Seed has been buried in the snow by the passing plow so it may not be at the side of the road collecting seed, there is some now out on the sidelines. It seems comfortable with passing cars and people, look carefully at the grass at the side of the road it really blends in, best viewed from the vehicle. Interestingly, it seemed to call when the Sandhill Cranes came over firing off their calls. Close study and photographs were taken. The A Concession Rd is the road north of Lakeshore Rd and only runs west off Hwy 59.
