NORTHERN HARRIER

Northern Harrier
This is the American version of our Hen Harrier and a potential good species in its own right.
Thornham Area near Titchwell, we kept scanning for it from titchwell itself untill late afternoon when we moved a couple of miles up the road, as we got out of the car the Harrier came up from behind a hedge (distant) with a Marsh Harrier, we had stunning views though over the next hour as it got closer, it then flew past and behind us towards the Harbour at Thornham were it dropped into a field, distant again but good scope views.
