User / Chris Bainbridge1 / Female Marsh Harrier
Chris Bainbridge / 4,703 items
Drove to the North Norfolk coast this afternoon and visited one of my favourite 'hidden' reserves. Sadly the kingfisher hide was very overgrown so no joy. This was more than made up for by a very close (for a Marsh Harrier!) fly past by this female carrying her Rabbit lunch. She was then joined by another female (I am assuming her daughter) who appeared to be begging for the food. I have never seen this behaviour before or 2 Harriers so close, couldn't believe it! Challenging light and focus (quite a few shots of the bushes rather than birds). Will post some of the chase shortly!
