Synopsis

Episode image for Marsh Harriers

Lionel Kelleway gets very close to the marsh harrier, an icon of the East Anglia marshland. It is quite a sight to see it rise, effortlessly, when looking across the seed head tops of a large yellow reedbed. The marsh harrier has characteristically large and broad wings and the male is stunningly beige.
