Strange Young Harrier Atherton Tablelands

["Alan Gillanders" <>]

Greetings,
Saw an immature Spotted Harrier this afternoon which had me vexed for a 
while. This is a very pale young bird with a bright white rump and dark 
face. The feathers on the legs are almost white and the head is dark. Seen 
in poor light one could be forgiven for getting very excited about it. Rows 
of dark spots on the wings rule out Papuan Harrier.
Also ten adult Sarus Cranes and one Bustard. All in the Marks Lane area 
between Yungaburra and Atherton.
Regards,
Alan Gillanders
