uk buzzard

although they are the most common uk bird of prey they are a nighmare to get close to,i dont know how aligater does it,this is my best buzzard in flight so far 100-400 350d

Quite good really. Lots of detail - which is not easy unless you have the light under the wings.

Anyway, why are you playing with buzzards when you have Golden Eagles and Fish Eagles to shoot in Scotland?

Nice flight shot, you need some bait to get him closer, try a road killed squirrel or rabbit anchored down to make sure he does not just pick it up and fly off.

Very nice in-flight shot.

Common blimey we see just sevral in a year i like this shot as its the way we mostley see them and even though its a long shot you have kept the detail well.
Rob.

scrumpy golden eagles and fish eagles are like gold here unless you travel north ,i only have one day to go hunting with my camera collection so time is limitedalligater i have been planning baiting for a while,the buzzards are now abandoning hunting worms so i may try this in the near future, gyrob buzzards are running out of territories in scotland,they are now hunting within the citys boundries (dundee) but they still wont let you get close to them

Good job.
