2CY (2nd winter) male Hen Harrier. Dark brown saddle and brown edged wing coverts. |
Seen from below and at distance the same 2CY male looks like an adult |
Two video-grabs of the 2CY male hunting |
A juvenile female was hunting when the 2CY male passed by. Both came together almost like a breeding pair about to perform a food pass before going their separate ways. |
Found a nice juvenile Rough-legged Buzzard on the 29 October. It stayed around for a few days but eventually moved on perhaps fed up with getting constant hassle from harriers and local Buzzards. |
