Buzzards. - Page 5

We've been out across the fields (trying hard not to count dead rabbits & golfers) and been watching the Buzzards.
At one point, there were 7 of them circling high in the sky just south of The Maypole.

Managed a couple of rubbishy shots of one that I spotted in a field - Couldn't get close enough before it took off.

Brilliant Andy. As Iv'e said been trying to get pictures of these all summer.
Never seen them on the ground till this week. I would have been well chuffed to have taken these, they don't seem to stop still for long.

Ta muchly, but they're not that good - I was set up for something else at the time, so all the settings were wrong for starters & just luck that we spotted the one in the field. Was a case of "spray & pray".

Wonderful photos - I have for a long time thought I was going bonkers because I could have sworn I saw one in a field going off the island some time back - didn't realise we had them so great to see.

Bit perturbed however re the counting of dead golfers.
