Boultham Mere
Flew in at 9.15am, fished for fifteen mintues and flew around with male Marsh Harrier, eventually caught a small fish and flew off towards the bypass, present for some twenty minutes.
It has a white ring with possibly a N8 lettering,the white ring though from what i have been told means it was ringed in the same area?? as the bird last year, more info to follow.
