I was watching an Osprey hunt when I noticed movement coming down the river towards me. I was quite surprised to see a female Northern Harrier cruise the river bank as I usually see them hunting in the fields. She was flying into the rising sun so when our eyes met, she seemed surprised to see me as well!
