Pretty neat Arash, inclusion of the tree line just adds to the overall capture.

Is this from last year or this year? If this year any sign of SEO's, as also I gather there are some reports of Snowy's too. Will be back in about a months time, hope for once the rain keeps off!!!!

Lovely capture Arash. There has been a northern harrier sharing space with a short eared owl in a fairly populated and popular area here in San Diego. Has brought out the long lenses for sure.

What a great photo Arash.
Perfect pose and the eye contact is fabulous.
Agree with Steve about trees at bottom.

thanks guys, Steve this is from CA as in California, not Canada. In boundary bay the harriers are difficult to photograph, they don't come close (at least for me) :D I didn't get to go up to Vancouver this year, I'm sure it's great though
