 | | Posted 01-07-2009 at 09:10 AM by RoutlTrc I visited the Wykeham Forest/Troutsdale area today to look for the special raptors which breed in this area and we wern't disappointed with excellent views of both Honey Buzzard(4 birds) and Goshawk (at least 3 differant birds).At one point we had 3 Honey's in the air together with a Common Buzzard for comparison!
