    Bird @8.02 is a male, first moult. Nice to see footage of one as I don't see them that often (high mortality rate in first year) despite the amount of time I spend watching hen harriers and they get more spectacular as they continue moulting. Thanks for creating/sharing.

    • @RichardBirchett
      @RichardBirchett  8 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks very much John and for the info on the age of the bird, I totally agree and nice to see them when they are in transition to their adult plumage. It's such a shame that it's so high, always pains me to find these beautiful creatures dead! All the best R😀

    Absolutely beautiful, very relaxing to watch. Love harriers, probably partly due to their owl-like faces, but they are so graceful too.

    Absolutely awesome Rich! The music suits the footage perfectly, & that Male HH - What a bird! I became obsessed with one on Mull last year after repeatedly seeing it in the same area (missed the closest it came to us due to driving at the time); they’re just stunning birds & on my bucket list to get footage & images of for sure. Super stuff mate.
    Keep on keeping on!
    Best,

      Hi Nick, nice to have you back I thought I'd lost one of my oldest subscribers there! So glad you enjoyed it, nice to do things different from time to time. They really are special birds and I really hope you get some luck when you return to Mull this year for your annual pilgrimage. You too. Rich 👍

      @@RichardBirchett Just a busy guy at the minute mate, got the end of my winter SEO vlog to finish editing (video editing is my nemesis - I hate it!), started gathering footage for my barn owl project & making the most of the free time/gaps in the weather that I have to get footage & images for that & on top of that an engineer down at work so I’m out on the road more at the moment.
