Northern Harrier

I have tried to get a photo of this bird every time I get to Montezuma  and have never been able to get close enough for a decent photo. Finally! She was all over the Wildlife drive today and this photo was taken as she was hunting right next to theNature Center. 
While tracking her I caught 3 large birds lifting off from the reeds and got off 3 shots before they dropped back into the brush.Sandhill cranes have been seen there  but these are another bird another one I've looked for a lot without any success till today. They were pretty far away but I'll take it!
