Another lucky capture on a trail camera. After the sparrowhawk and the woodcocks last winter the camera has now recorded a buzzard. One of the great things about remote monitoring is that the bird / animal is completely unaware that it is being watched and behaves normally. It would be almost impossible to observe a buzzard like this directly. The video is a bit more heavily cropped than the stills and as a result it is a bit less sharp.
The buzzard stayed in front of the camera for about three minutes but after the clip above it didn't do much. It stood looking about and then walked up the bank out of shot. Obviously not having a busy day.
That is just terrific Chris! Some of the oddities are really unexpected. I got a red-legged partridge one early morning! Hardly ever see those.
