Mystery Garden Visitor
Taken by my Dad on Saturday, my thought is Harris Hawk but don't have a guide book with it and think perhaps on the small side any ideas chaps? Also I'm afraid no further info on id only other thing is it flew off right.
Nobody else offering up ideas on this one? I know it's probably an escaped bird even if briefly from a nearby falconer but it's not everyday something like this lands in your garden, be nice to get some idea as to what it was.
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,
