Observation details
*Scarce, but increasing. I was watching a GBHE when I noticed it was extending its neck and angling its head sideways in a peculiar way, as if to stare straight up (or down, I suppose). Looking up, I saw a line of three large raptors soaring west to east, slightly higher than the circling gulls. Dark bodies, silver wing patches limited to wing tips, very short tails made for an easy ID. Photos obtained of two of the individuals.
