It has been ages since I have had a good view of a Spotted Harrier. They have been very scarce this season. In the drought years of 2007, 2008 and 2009 they were regularly seen around home at Wilby in the surrounding paddocks.
The pet guinea fowl today at home were carrying on, this time for real as a young Spotted Harrier was overhead trying to catch some of their chicks.
It was unsuccessful in its attempt but it was till good to see this species again, and at home.
