Is this a Buzzard or something else?

Buzzard.

Buzzard, or ‘tourist eagle’

Ta

massive zoom or did you get real close?

Actually, Buzzards spend a lot of time sitting on posts like this, they sit very still watching for mice or voles in the grass/undergrowth around the bottom of the post. There are loads living around us, they often fly off from posts as we drive past, very beautiful birds (if you are not a mouse!)

How close were you John?

boring…. thought you meant the other variety

Common Buzzard, lazy bu99ers, often seen on the ground looking for earthworms, when looking for voles is too much effort. ;0)

Buzzard, and there’s a pair of them where that shot was taken.

baby robin?
