After finding some Buzzards the other day, I went back to the same field, and whaddya know, there were at least six buzzards, as well as loads of gulls and more lapwings.

I have done no PP on these, just a little crop here and there.

So to start with a nice silhouette:

1/


2/ Majestic



3/ What you lookin at?



4/ Did you not here me?



5/ You asking for trouble?



6/ All right I'll leave it then...



Check the background in the last one, another Buzzy having a go at a gull and loads of Lapwings.

The field is near a farm, and somewhere I have got a shot with at least 5 Buzzards and some very worried looking Chickens...

I was at the max of my cameras capability on these, all 300mm, and with it being abridge, not the Best IQ. Also only 9mp.

But I am still happy with this set.

All comments appreciated.

The only camo is the mud that is on it, I must have been 20-30ft away from them. They were quite bold, but there is a few cars an hour using the road so kinda used to them I guess. I was shooting through the window, but as soon as I opened the door they were off.
 
A nice set of images well done (y)

Thanks guys, WIsh I had tweaked the colour a little before posting, a bit of a play and the images are much stronger.
