Harriers and Shorties!

Harriers and Shorties!



My day started in gloomy weather at Wallasea this morning where four Marsh Harriers and a single Ring-tail Hen Harrier entertained me. With the Shorties staying down I headed off in search of a bit more light and found some in Cambridgeshire and the Short-eared Owls came out to play at this venue too.

A good day watching these magnificent winter predators relatively close to home.

To coin a phrase “I’ll be back!”
