Birds of prey

We've just returned this p.m. from Cornwall - very frosty there and in Devon too, dank and misty all the way back to York where the sun began to shine! Anyway, what I found so remarkable was the numbers of hawks to be seen on our journey, particularly down in Cornwall. Is it something to do with the more open landscape - less trees, much more shrub type vegetation without leaves, which of course made them more visible - or is there naturally a better source of food etc. in that area? Certainly a spotters paradise in the region of the A38. Nice to be back - Happy New Year everyone.
