The RSPB have made arrangements for birdwatchers to see a pair of Montagu?s Harriers at their breeding site. They
have done similar things in the past for example, with Peregrine?s at Symonds Yat and Goshawk at New Fancy View and
it enables birders to see the birds at a carefully managed site. The details are on their website at
www.rspb.co.uk/england/eastanglia/watching/monty.asp and while it is in Lincolnshire it is the best reliable
opportunity to see the species. In the area are several good reserves and the Norfolk coast is not so far away. So
if you want to see a Monty?s this is the best place to go until 15th August.
