On the Hunt

I was on my way home for lunch and saw something flying around the lagoons, low and slow. I decided to stop and see if it would come my way, and it wasn't long until it did a fly by. I always bring my camera with me, well try to, you just never know what you will come across. This Northern Harrier was hunting for a snack and it would drop into the tall grass along the lagoons hoping for a meal. I watched it for a little bit from my vehicle and once it landed in the grass, out of sight, I continued home.
