I recently discovered the hunting grounds for a few Northern Harriers, which as you know will veer away if they see you 100 yds away. I believe these have become accustomed to human visitors to this park so I was able to get relatively close. A lucky break as I was breaking in my new D850, this female/immature harrier decided to rest on a gate for a few moments right near me.View attachment 13279
