Just found this while looking at the "Birds to look out for" list. I cannot see how this is a Spotted Harrier? I would think a Brown Goshawk. Happy to be corrected.

Thanks for picking up on this, Shorty, I agree with you. I have undone Chris' confirmation and removed these photos from the Spotted Harrier page.
PS. If you do have any Spotted Harrier photos from the CNM region we would love them as we are now photo-less for this species.
