Good news for Hen harriers in Northumberland

A nest of five hen harrier chicks that were being watched by various bodies up here in Northumberland, have ALL turned out to be females..Excellent news as the Northumberland population of these birds was down in female numbers. All birds have been recently fitted with tracking devices which can transmit up to 65 kilometers....
