    A milestone for me. My first Buzzard

    Technically not my first as I had an in flight one before that was a little over processed, however, apart from a crop on this one it's technically my first shot of a Buzzard. Been seeing this one on this lampost on the way home every night. Tonight I stealth drove up the hill and managed not to scare him away.

      A lot better than any wild buzzard i have ever got. We often see them perched by the isde of the road but always dual carriegeways with no place to stop. Ok the perch isnt brilliant but that is the sort of place they perch, that or the top of lamposts etc

            It perches there at the same time every day. That road is notorious for killing foxes and deer, so It's a constant supply of food. Still reckon I'd have got a much clearer picture with a 400. I could have photoshopped a wooden branch perch in, but that wouldn't have sold it for me lol
