I saw a male this afternoon. I live in Gosport Hampshire. It's coastal and there's also marsh and wetlands here. I can't believe I was lucky enough to see it. I was riding my bike and it flew over me to the right about 15 feet away.
Luckily not all of the shooting community are like this. Bad eggs in all aspects of life. I witnessed this with my own eyes this weekend while out shooting. I shot nothing. But got to sit and watch many wonders of nature. Wonders most will never see. I then gave the exact location to the raptor man for him to log it. We aren't all bad.
Harriers all very well introducing them to Hampshire but this could be to the detriment of local bird life, we have a male that comes and goes with birds from our garden feeders so you win some and loose some???
I’ve never seen these birds in the wild. They look so beautiful - and the female dwarfs her male counterpart! I hope they can recover in the UK.
Awesome, absolutely awesome video. 👏👏👏
Absolutely breath-taking.
Well done my friend!
I love the narrating and scenery
I was blessed to be able to see a very similar skydance yesterday a few feet over my head at my own home, east Co.clare.

A fantastic wee video of fantastic birds with delightful narrating
Beautiful footage of a fantastic bird.
Wow..what an amazing video! Love it so much
Beautiful, thank you
Beautiful footage of this stunning bird!
Amazing, It's hard to believe anyone would want to persecute such beauty!
Just saw one on islay
You could be forgiven for thinking female hen harriers are a variant of Short-eared owls.
I see them occasionally , have only seen three females in recent years and one male a long time ago.
I think I saw 5 of them today in forest of bowland flying together . Parents and juveniles
Great action here subscribed 👍
Ah ! So it is a hen harrier that lives down the lane. Thanks
Brilliant footage of a fantastic bird. Strange that some evil folk out there shoot and poison them . Long live the #henharrier

That would not be a hen harrier. They are no threat to garden birds.
it's not introducing, it's restoring, and they ARE local bird life, or at least they should be
Absolutely awesome creatures , sit back with a pint of Hen Harrier Ale ( fabulous pint) & drink to the future of our beautiful hen harriers 😁👍
