Buzzard

[nanila]

When I got up this morning and pulled the curtains on an upstairs window, I saw a buzzard sitting in the field over the canal. I was still rather groggy so these aren't the best shots, but it was exciting seeing one so close, and so still.

Are you sure that's a buzzard? It looks like a hawk of some kind.

Wow!

Oooh! That flying shot is especially great.

Cool!

We have some Cooper's Hawks in the area but I hardly ever get the chance to snap photos of them -- I either don't have my camera or just can't get a photo fast enough.

Wow. How big are these birds? Because that’s what I know as a hawk, but it looks like it’s as big as the things we call buzzards.

What a fabulous thing to see first thing in the morning! I've never seen a buzzard on the ground, just flying high overhead.
