Northern Harrier nest
We were privileged this afternoon to come across this Northern Harrier's nest and eggs. It was built on a grassy hillside in a natural area south of the city. I have an 18x zoom, so was able to get a couple of very quick shots without going any nearer to the nest. Hopefully, all three eggs will hatch successfully and three more beautiful raptors will be able to grace our skies! The temperature was somewhere around a warm 22C, so there was no fear of the eggs not keeping warm while Mom was cruising the skyways nearby: )
