juv. My highlight in a full circuit of Wilstone Reservoir this morning was a juvenile MARSH HARRIER that slowly drifted east along the Dry Canal ridge between Drayton Beauchamp and Little Tringford. It kept migrating east until in line with College Lake and may well have been the bird that Roy had over Pitstone Hill and Rupert intercepted later over Coursers Road at Tyttenhanger (photographed).

Moulting cream-crown bird seen circling the east side of the lake before flying strongly west. Record photo taken. Probably arrived 10 mins earlier as something unseen spooked all the terns, gulls and ducks. I suspect it landed out of sight somewhere before flying on.
