Common Buzzard

I saw a Buzzard earlier today flying not far above roof top level, around and around as if it had spotted something, at one point I thought that it was going to land in the street behind my house but after a few more circuits it flew off towards the pine plantation which is about a mile away, a couple of doves flying low scarpered in the opposite direction and the mob of sparrows and finches which had been feeding in my next door neighbours overgrown brambles shot off into her conifers. Beautiful bird the buzzard I have seen them flying high before but the first time that I have seen one that close.

I love to see them teaching their baby to fly and soar, talking to it all the way.
Am off for a walk with the dog on Porth Luny in front of Caerhayes Castle this morning, hopefully it will be sheltered from the wind a bit. A demanding drive down, very narrow lane with a multitude of hairpin bends and usually lots of dopey pheasant wandering around on the road, reluctant to move out of the way. Tooting the horn does nothing to ruffle their feathers, they just look at the car and carry on wandering around in no particular direction.
I dribble at the thought of pheasant pie for dinner!
