Abstract

 The Northern Harrier (Circus hudsonius) reaches the southern limit of its current breeding range at San Quintín Bay, Baja California Mexico, where the tidal salt marsh is home to possibly as many as 15 pairs. In 2023 one pair had a nest with three eggs hatching 25–26 April. Two young fledged by 17 June.
