Buzzard on pole

This is the first shot of a wild bird of prey that I have managed to photograph.
Not an award winning image, but hey I like it

That is very good indeed.. these birds will fly off if they even THINK someone is around, I have tried (and failed) to get a wild buzzard shot. Very hard to do, so, you done an excellent job, well done indeed.

Congrats on your first, I've yet to get decent buzzard shot.

Yes, they always fly away when I open the car window, so well done for not spooking him.

Yeah, not a bad shot at all - the eye is nice and sharp.

I went on a Falconery course a few years ago and was told that when we can't be bothered to do something, we are "FED UP". This saying is said to originate from Falconery as when the birds have overeaten or weigh more than they should, they are "Fed Up" and can't be bothered to fly or anything.

I must be permanately overweight or have overeaten
