Hen Harrier, adult female & male T-Shirt

Hen Harrier (Circus cyaneus) For this illustration, an adult female is the main figure. Her height/weight ratio, compared to featured adult male, is quite accurate. Females of this species possess greater height, body length and weight than their male counterparts. Across the continent of Europe, Hen Harriers have a large area of distribution, but populations reveal great differences, country by country. This list specifies nations where the Harriers currently live and breed: the Russian Federation, Georgia, Hungary, Czechia, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Kingdom of Belgium, Kingdom of the Netherlands, French Republic, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland- but here, due to intensified persecution, nest disturbances and illegal shooting, this bird is now, sadly, very rare in England. They fare a little better in Wales. In Scotland, their chances of survival improve, with further isolation from humans. There are sporadic populations in Northern Ireland. South of the border, the Republic of Ireland has expansive regions where Hen Harriers are breeding, thanks to government efforts to save them..
