In a sad sign of the times, on June 26 the Pennsylvania Game Commission board moved the classification of the upland sandpiper, a grassland nesting bird, from ‘threatened’ to ‘endangered’ in its Endangered Species program. Added to the ‘threatened’ list were the northern harrier, a raptor, and the elusive long-eared owl.
