An interesting day
Another day out, this time off to look at a camper van, yet again, en-route, Chris, nee GLW yells "STOP" "LOOK"
Mirror, signal, manoeuvre, luckily no one was behind, reverse into a siding.
Grab camera, already set up, and ready to go.
This buzzard, sat on the hedge, had an eye on breakfast.
Camera rested on roof rail, lens picks up some glare from the roof, as I'm hiding behind the car out of sight (hopefully from the buzzard).
Within seconds it had swooped onto the field and grabbed breakfast. I moved for a better view after which it flew up, back onto the hedge to consume the catch of the day.
From start to finish no more than 5 mins.

On the return journey, having spotted a sparrow hawk sat on a fence post, I turned around further down the road, and parked up near by, but it flew off much to my annoyance.
So off on a detour, spotted this kestrel, too good an opportunity to miss, and it duly obliged with an aerial display.
