Northern Harrier on the Hunt

I caught up with this Female Northern Harrier during it's late afternoon hunt in the Marsh.

Their tail feather color is quite unique and won't be confused with other raptures.

Hey, Tom,
Great harrier images. Everybody gets'em in a lateral view in flight. These are the first...and really good...posterior in-flight views I've ever seen of a harrier! just beautiful illustration of the caudal hite patch. The symmetry of both postures is excellent!
