This afternoon at 2:30, a large brown raptor with white rump was flying on 
the north side of Rt. #32 at Broken Land Parkway, headed west.  It was low, 
at treetop level, long wingspan.  It took me a while before all that 
processed in my brain, but I finally realized it could only have beena 
harrier.  It was not accipter like, and rather too big any way.  I did not 
note any dihedral or rocking motion, but, then, it was 30 or so feet up.
