I have some distant scrappy video of the same bird (given its 'feather combo'). taken when last there ( 8th Jan). Given the number of birds , like the quail that are there, there is plenty of reason for it to 'hang about".

Can anyone give me a diagnosis of this distant harrier seen at Parkwood Road on Saturday please? I’ve tried examining the ‘spots’ but can’t clearly distinguish between the spots of a spotted or the streaks of a swamp. The undertail has strong bars which I believe is more indicative of a spotted. No sign of a white rump that I could see but not sure if it would be visible in the views I got.

Thanks,

Julian
