Northern Harrier

Northern Harriers hunt by flying low over marshes and fields listening and looking for prey below, just as this individual is doing. Identification clues include the white patch on the rump and long wings that are often held in v-shape when they are gliding. ML Video #469369. Recorded by Eric S. Liner.
