Observation details
Dozens of individuals involved in dance at the lek. Audible as well. When the harrier flew through, approx 30 were visible. Males displayed beautifully with short 6-8 feet flight, and dances with extended wings and lowered heads, with sharp tail erect. bright lavender neck spots and yellow eyebrows clearly visible over tan/brown/white body flecked with dark spots. We were fortunately to have one male displaying on the side of the road on the drive out which provided for excellent close up pictures, along with a female who was watching the display. ABA lifer #608.
