The Sound of Silence. (Circus cyaneus)

I have waited years to capture a decent photo of this Harrier who is a regular visitor to the meadow at the rear of my house. Today was my day, flying up and down the meadow he finally came close enough for a decent flight shot, what happened next was so exciting for me I think i held my breath for ten minutes. More to follow.

Thank you all for your replies. Just as a point of interest on the sequence of photos of this harrier in flight, he has his head turned left and right on some shots listening for any sounds below.
