Hen Harrier near Talbenny

At around 1500 this afternoon a large raptor flew at hedge-top height across the road between the Talbenny crossroads and Slatemill. I stopped the car (apologies to the driver behind me!) and got a glimpse of an unmarked adult female Hen Harrier that briefly landed in the field. The wing markings looked very clear, and there was no sign of any tags, so possibly the "other" ringtail that Rich saw at Marloes Mere.
