A good example of one of this is like the Harrier I saw last Sunday at Cronulla. The field guides don't really show an old male Swamp Harrier and one could have easily suspected this bird to be a Papuan Pied Harrier viewed from below. Male Swamp Harriers have generally paler under-parts than females and juv. birds, and not so often with alot of white in the under-parts and under-wings like the bird I saw. Regards Edwin |
