That is a really nice hot of a soaring buzzard. You will find that the colouration and marking of buzzards vary alot.

Well thank you.
I have only ever seen a Kestrel and of course the ones that are so high no one can tell what they are. |

We were lucky to see these in Kefalonia. They were flying everyday and we watched themwhile lying by our pool. They live in the protected parks there.
