This really just a record shot. Taken at the far end of my 100-300mm zoom lens and a huge crop. The nearest I've got to a decent shot yet..!!

An international difference -- when I saw this I thought "That's not a buzzard, it's a hawk." I did some googling, though, and It turns out that in the New World buteos are considered hawks while in the Old World they're considered vultures. Here, if it's white underneath it's a hawk.

A great shot either way.

Cheers Andy............I'd love a longer lens but I can't justify the cost at the moment given the relatively small amount of time I spend shooting wildlife. I'll just have to keep figuring out how to get closer..!!
