These two photos of Harriers were taken on 6-5-01 by one of our committee members in his backyard.  They were taken with a digital camera, not a fancy telephoto lense camera.  We ask you - Does this look like 1000 feet.  By the way, the decibel reading was 110 and 114.
The harrier photo below was taken with a digital camera from my porch. It could not have been more than 200 - 300 feet.  There's no doubt you could have hit it with a BB gun.  The db reading flashed when it hit 120 - that's as high as my sound meter reads.
