Forum member Brad Ouellette captured this great shot of a Northern Harrier at
Hillman Marsh Conservation Area near Leamington, Ontario, and posted it in our
U.S. and Canada Gallery.
“Sitting in my car along the road,” he writes, “these harriers hunted feet from me; as you can tell, almost into my lens.” Brad used a Canon 7D and a 500mm f/4 lens. You can see more of his photos on his
website.
