Not used to seeing these in me garden! Think it was after the neighbours cat!

| | | Re: Bird id please... You're being a bit harsh on yourself there susie- not a bad picture at all. Your thoughts were correct- it is a Buzzard, which are very common in Devon.
That's an impressive Sunflower dwarfing it! |

| | | Re: Bird id please... Thanks for your kind replies aeshna5, jaykay,big bill & Robin P, I took a few pics this one was best. Glad it was clear enough to id. I see them flying high up over fields but was a thrill to see it so close, really checkin out me garden. The sunflower is lovely it's about 10ft! It's my new neighbours but I did plant some for her children....Mine are much bigger!
