🐦 Description: Spotted this majestic Marsh Harrier cruising low over the reeds at Leighton Moss like it owned the place! And why shouldn’t it? These birds are a symbol of successful conservation efforts in the UK. Did you know Marsh Harriers were almost extinct here in the 1970s? Now they’re making a comeback, thanks to wetland preservation. They’re not just pretty faces; these raptors are skilled hunters, often doing a tag-team approach to hunting. One will flush out the prey, and the other swoops in for the capture!
