Eastern Marsh Harrier

 Previously I show typical juvenile plumage. Today is another plumage of a young bird. This plumage are palest and cream coloured around the head. Note on the eye colour which can assist in sexing and ageing the bird.

In additional to that note that the shoulder patch are cream in colour and not white opposed to typical plumage of a pied harrier female. Bill size and distinctive yellow colour leg help in identification as well.
