Barry's comments on one of the uses of photo's today.... so keep at it!
(See Rich's photo below of the harrier today)
Good on her!
She really is a beauty. Top class photos like yours enable us to look at the plumage of a bird which we know the exact age of (she being fledged last summer), so thank you. Above all it shows me she is doing really well. Thanks a million Richard.
Barry,
(PS. not my bird at all, I only had the priviledge of knowing her, her parents and where she came from).
