Hen drenaline moment.





The song of a newly arrived Sedge warbler stopped me in my tracks this morning whilst out on my patch. And then to my surprise this male Hen harrier shot through the reed bed. It all happen so quick leaving for little time to snap any photo's. These are the only images I was able to get before he was gone. But never the less a special moment of excitement that got my adrenaline pumping.

Roosting Hens




As the light was fading late Friday afternoon, I managed to see two Hen harriers (ringtail) Coming into the evening Roost on the Marshes. During my visit that day other raptors seen where Marsh Harriers, Common Buzzard, Kestrel  Barn & Little Owl. Altho the regular pair of Peregrine Falcon couldn't be located on the posts out on Geedon marshes. Fingers crossed that my next visit gives me some better opportunity's to photograph these species.
