Hen harrier, Northern harrier


Yesterday, December 4th, I took photos of Northern Harrier in a neighboring prefecture for the first time in two years. (male only)

I arrived at the site around noon and waited until 4:22 p.m.

They appeared two times, apparently as different individuals.

But the distance to the target was far. 

Their breeding area is northern Eurasia, and during the winter they migrate to northern Africa and central Eurasia. They inhabit Europe all year round.

It flies to Japan as a winter bird to overwinter, but it is localized and the number of individuals is small.Cited from Wikipedia, described in Japanese.
