Harrier Fly By

I normally get a single sighting of a Hen Harrier each winter.
This year was looking rather lean until now, when a glance at some cattle yesterday morning resulted in a fast application of brakes and grabbing of binoculars and there in the field of view was a male Hen Harrier. What a great bird. Sublime.
Then as it disappeared over the field boundary I heard a Corn Bunting singing. They are back again for the second year in a row, and probably 2 males singing on the down. But the good news is that a third bird is singing half a mile away as well!

This was the female caught and ringed on 26th Feb.
