WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY

I saw this bird several times when Judith and I took our very early walk in Malawi however I was not sure what it was.  Jo hedges (blogger) and her husband Grant as well as their SIL helped me to ID it as a Steppe Buzzard.  
I am linking with WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY.

  1. Birds of prey can be a real challenge when you not at home!

    I read an excellent article recently about having people in 'landscape' shots - although in India you dont have much option!

  4. I was very surprised to see the name of this pretty yellow beaked bird! This is because here, we use the word buzzard and vulture for vultures. And he does not have a bald head! SO, I was off to Google to find out the difference between a buzzard and a vulture. They are not the same at all! But for some reason, Americans use the names interchangeably. I sure learned something today.
