You're effectively quite lucky to have such a visit. Keep up the eco treatment and bravo for it.
Did you know that birds of prey were almost eradicated by DDT? They are making a comeback now and their habits have changed a lot compared to the seventies. In my region they live on powerlines next to highways. I guess the noise distracts prey just enough to make them careless and available. Again, fascinating creatures.
