Nortern Harrier

On October, when went to Hawk mountain, their was a total of birds there. On the hike the winds were gusting and it was just a ugly day. Over head I saw a light gray body. I notice it was a northern harrier. You can indefie it by its medium sized body and its long tailed and most of all his long slender long wings. At Hawk Mountain I easly saw this bird because he flies very low with long wings held up in a sight v shape. It was strange to see the Northern Harrier because you would usally find them in the west and center of America you can see most of thhe Northern Harriers. The bonus about the Northern Harrier is it migrates all year round. The Northern Harrier swoops down low to spy on his prey and then later ponch on him. This bird nesting ground is found in grass lands on the ground. Also, mamals like rats are found on the ground. Luckily, the Northern Harrier is one bird that is least talked about. It finds its food by flying low and swooping over habbitats of his preys.
