Nice surprise this morning when looking for Common and Lesser Whitethroat down by Sully Brook – looked up to see what I thought were 2 high gulls, then the flight of one drew my attention – bins up and wow! male Hen Harrier circling high overhead! A first for me for the site. Panic stations with the camera and shot off a load of manual focus shots [it was v high] but got a couple of passable ones that show it wasn’t Monty’s. Pix later. Dipped on the Whitethroats but what the hell! Original taken with Canon EOS80D with 100-400mm MKII plus x1.4 converter MKIII at 400mm and man focus! It was v high!


Original b4 cropping!
