Hen Harrier

I had to go for a medical today in Beverley. All went well and on my way back home I detoured via Stone Creek. It's been a quiet winter there but there's always hope...right?

I pulled up around 12.30 and gave Bud a stretch. A few scans revealed a few groups of Curlew over but nothing else. Another scan. I thought I saw..."something"...grey!!!

I did...

The bird quartered the far side of the field never venturing closer to the road...unfortunately. It was only present for 2 minutes. I waited until 2.30pm but it didn't re-appear. The pics are obviously record shots and purely a bonus to the sighting. Great to see a male...
