When the shot was first put out on twitter, it was suggested it was a young marsh harrier. So unless you were dealing with an observer who, at least could have instantly put out the news of a pyg/mac harrier on site, then there's every chance the bird was gone next day.As it stands,...There was a pallid harrier in Northumberland....it's gone somewhere...Owen</blockquote>
