Buzzard (pic added)

WOW!!!!!!!

fantastic shots - have never been able to get as close as that. We're off to Mull in a couple of weeks time, and I bet I still don't get as close as that! :LOL: :(
 
Your pics deserve all the superlatives, Ian. Absolutely fabulous.

Have you come across the website www.birdguides.com ? (Sorry, can't do links yet).

They have a weekly competition, and I'm sure you'd have a good chance.

You can get their basic news service for free, or if you pay a monthly fee, you get news of all the rarities and where they are.

I prefer the bird without eye contact. The bird with looksn a bit nervous.

I thought the first one was good, that last one you posted is excellent.
 
Crikey, how did I miss this thread?

Ian you've been warned before about hanging your big one out of car windows! :LOL:

Loving the shot with the eye contact. Really piercing eyes!

That first one is stunning, well done Ian, I really like it very much indeed.

Careful my head wont fit through the door at this rate ;)
 
Mull is special Ian. The 3 days I had on Mull where excellent. Although I did not get any decent pictures of a BoP just some Chaffinchs :(, but there is just so much to see on the wildlife side.

Excellent set of photos (y)
 
So far that is the best photo I have seen of a buzzard especially on the ground, have often seen them worming on ploughed fields but could never get close enough without spooking them.
