Giving You a Northern Harrier Moment

All of us need to pause for an extended moment in our lives. Mine was watching a hawk search for lunch. 

This beauty of a Northern Harrier silently catching air was the most peaceful moment from yesterday. 

Breathe. Breathe again. Enjoy a peaceful, quiet moment when you are blessed with one.  Be in the moment  and look up from your phone to enjoy nature or life in general.

This harrier was searching for lunch in the field I had just driven through. Birds are highly intelligent.   This harrier knew an opportunity for a potential snack from the disturbance of the vegetation. 

This winter there are noticeably more hawks, harriers, and Merlins hanging out on the Llano Estacado.  What that means, I have no clue. It is an observation of me being a wildlife biologist, where I do not have answers, only observations that may lead to answers. 

Enjoy your day.

Hopefully, you’ll have a blessed moment when you can stop, breathe, observe, and breathe again for a moment of peace in this chaotic world.
