Circus cyaneus
Dark brown bird with some lighter color feathers underneath. It had a thick white band on its rump. It had a flat, owl-like face.
Flying in an erratic, zig-zag pattern over coastal marshes at Meigs Point. It was flying in a fast, erratic pattern that it made it very difficult and frustrating to photograph.
Formerly known as a Marsh Hawk, this is a female Northern Harrier. Nice spotting!
