I have finished my quota of Eurasian Marsh Harriers Circus aeruginosus for this season. Every bird which looked like a raptor seemed to be the Eurasian Marsh Harrier at Yellamma Lake.

This one is a Female Marsh Harrier. Typically you’d see their wings in ‘V’ shape in flight. The white markings on their shoulders makes it easy to identify them. The open fields near the Yellamma lake had a lot of harrier activity. They are migrants to India.
