Are you sure it was a buzzard? The bird in the pic looks like a juv peregrine.

I'm not convinced its a buzzard the wing and tail shape looks all wrong but would a peregrine even a young one harass a crow for 10 mins?

Taken at the start of the month - but only just sorted!
My prototype log-cot/hammock made from an old hammock... and comfy as anything!
Tapes now replace the cheap and suspect rope...

Never sure- we have alot of birds of prey around here. I have zoomed in on another shot, its got two in, and it gave up the chase when its mate turned up.You can see the colours in more detail, and your proberly right.

Me: 'Because mine doesn't fit in the sink!'

I don't know what you mean. He got out fine. Besides, I was unable to help. Not only was I busy taking pictures, I was laughing too.

Stupid animal regained the path, shook, then walked off the other side into some identical mud and repeated the getting stuck manoeuvre. :11doh:
