First buzzard spot of the season. An incensed crow was nuking it into removing itself from the territory which it did, slowly and reluctantly. I followed its disappearance into the west, and another one appeared. That one didn't stay - maybe it saw what had happened to the first !!

Corvids aren't very tolerant of Buzzards at the best of times. At the moment they probably have young in the nest so the Buzzard is even less welcome.

You'd better warn your neighbours about sunbathing scantily clad in the back garden. :nod:

Great photo's Bob, I particularly like that first one. Nice blue sky, grim down here...
