Here I come

These birds prefer the open country of grasslands and marshes, inhabiting areas where small mammals are plentiful. Their population changes, breeding behaviors and nest success change from year to year based on their food supply. Breeding occurs in March through June. Their courtship entails elaborate flight displays that include wing-clapping, exaggerate wing beats and scuffles. www.fws.gov
