Pale Coloured Buzzard

I am once again on the I.O.W. and I am still trying to finish my posts from being here in February.  Once again Eileen and I went to the National Trust Reserve at Newtown.  Today before we arrived at the reserve, we spied this very pale Buzzard sitting in a field and I thought you would like to see it.  I had never seen such a light coloured bird before although Eileen said she had seen a chick born a couple of years ago that was very like this one and we wondered if this was the one she had seen before. Anyway, I hope you enjoy seeing this lovely bird.









Thanks you for visiting.

Many thanks for all who left comments on any of my blogs

  2. He is a lovely bird - and if he is not the one that Eileen had seen, I suspect he was a close relative.

  11. That one does look very pale,but I guess there are lots of variations in plumage.

  13. Very interesting, and I would never have guessed that he was a buzzard. I would have guessed some sort of hawk. As you can tell, I have a LONG way to go on the birding. Very good shots
