Western Marsh Harrier Circus aeruginosus. Its wings are broad and rounded, and in flight it resembles a hawk. It is a typical marsh bird of prey. In migration, it frequently comes to the coast and open countryside, but never far from water. Small mammals, passerines that live near water, frogs, insects, fish and salamanders are in its food chain. It also eats carrion. Males are quite territorial during the mating season. Males rise in circles to court the female at these times. Then they dive down to the ground quite quickly, and the female then accompanies the male. Again at these times, males offer the female some of the food they have hunted in the air.
