| Buzzard in a tree, obviously. |
A beautiful morning to start off March. Daffodils are starting to show flower heads along the road and I noticed new leaves starting to appear in the low plants through the woods. I only managed to get as far as the Clay Pits because I was distracted by a fantastic Buzzard.
I flushed it from one of the trees by Wood Lane and instead of the typical Buzzard behaviour (i.e. disappear into the woods) it landed in a tree on the other side of the second pit. It sat there for a while then moved to a pine and started to preen.
I guess that it had been bathing earlier on the morning and was drying off when I arrived. At least I had a camera with me, although only the baby lens and it was very misty, so only crappy record images.
PS. For Si - there was a Tawny Owl singing in the dawn chorus at 06:00 this morning :-)
