Northern Harrier Lifer*
Observed at Orland Grassland, Orland Park, Illinois USA on February 27, 2016. Observation of at least four of these hawks throughout three hours. They were seen, mostly flying low and sometimes in pairs. They would fly over the top of the grasses, then swoop down into the grass and disappear. Then start all over again. The series was taken from 200-250 yards away, hand held.
