Hello, i disturbed this rather large bird on my run last night and it flew accross the open field to settle again on this branch. I have taken pics with my phone from a long distance so apologies for the quality. It was sizable and i cant seem to work out what it is ? .
Many thanks
Ian
It's a Common Buzzard. Their plumage can be very variable from pale to dark. but they nearly all have a characteristic "necklace" on their upper chest.
