Pallid Harrier Circus macrourus
A very rare visitor to the UK from south-east Europe, however records here and elsewhere in northern Europe are increasing where there have been a number of reports of mixed pairings with Hen Harrier. A number of hybrids have been identified and it seems likely that others have been overlooked as one or other pure species.
