Lovely female, chirping after successfully chasing me off. Well in her mind any way.

Nice shot of a bird that has so far eluded my camera. They show up here during winter, but can be tough to nail down. Oddly, I saw a male a few weeks ago which took me by surprise.

Thanks Zach. They are definitely quite wary.

Nice shot of a bird that is often hard to get close enough to capture. Great job!

Thank you. I was quite surprised she landed in the tree and did not take off again quickly.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Thanks Ted. I love it why they come in so clear. She was so kind to pose for me after trying to run me off.

The Hen Harriers hereabouts when calling like that is an offer to 'hook up' with a close-by male...nice click!

That's a beauty John. I've had limited success in-flights with these birds but I've never had the good fortune of finding one perched. Well done.
