Thanks alll...Yah my list is coming along although for me a photo must be taken not enough to just see the bird, knocked off three hard ones this weekend though the Long Eared Owl, Redpoll and now the Northern Harrier...next is the Northern Shrike and I am pretty sure I saw it at the Spit no pic though lol!
