Hen Harrier

Male Hen Harrier hunting around the car for 30 seconds this evening, within a few metres of the vehicle, very close views. A few minutes earlier a Bonxie had been touchable if you were quick enough or were prepared to put your hand that close to that bill.

The Scaup was still in with the Tufties, 200 or so but the pub beckoned so still not on the garden list.

Earlier my cycle home was disrupted by a glimpse of a low flying swift sp, micro moments later it was revealed as a hunting Merlin just by the bottom of the track.
