Eastern Meadowlark

CT River Valley Nesting Sites

Candidate grassland fields within a 10km buffer of the Connecticut River centerline, from Vernon VT to Claremont NH. Fields are classified from the 2024 USDA Cropland Data Layer (hay, pasture, grassland, corn). Nest sites are from field observations (2023-2025). Two Keene NH sites fall outside the 10km corridor (~16km east) but are included as confirmed nesting locations.
