Raptor Watch

I met up with Kev yesterday, we decided to go to the Whoosh site, what a difference a day makes in four hours we only caught 4 Linnets. A couple of factors 

  • 1 only about 25 finches seen all morning
  • 2 The net miss fired Twice 
  • 3 The constant patrolling of Raptors
Great views of a female Hen Harrier as she flew right over whoosh net, 2 Peregrines flew low straight over
then a Kestrel hovered for a bit. A Male sparrowhawk  patrolled up and down the fence for an hour and the last insult the female Merlin landed and sat 30ft from the net. Managed to take these shots through the fence before she took flight.
