Love Harriers.

They are a tough bird for me to get a decent image of but I too enjoy watching the bird.

Thanks Rich. There was a stiff breeze the harrier was headed into and this was at stall speed for him/her.

Nice pose and colors! On Monday I'm planning to head out to a location here in SW PA to photograph Northern Harriers and Short-eared Owls. If I can grab a shot as good as yours I'll be one happy guy

Thanks Jeff. The harriers are difficult to capture. You must know your raptors as I didn't this was a female. Erik

The Male Northern Harrier is also known as the Gray Ghost, mostly for their coloring and because they're not as numerous. They're also better looking IMO which makes them even more special. Hopefully I'll get some keepers from today that I can share later!
