Montagu's Harrier

(August 29, 2009)
A rare Montagu's Harrier has been sighted today in the fields over Moscow Farm, near Burrough Hill.  'Twitchers' are lining the narrow lanes to get a glimpse of this rare bird of prey.  Also this morning, an Osprey flew over the cameras.  A good morning for birdwatchers in rural East Leicestershire.

Why not stay at our holiday cottage and see for yourself.............
