Record from my flat - Common Buzzard

I had yet another Common Buzzard record from my flat today, albeit only brief sightings but nonetheless my 30th record of the year to date

At 11:30 a.m., I heard a Common Buzzard calling and quickly spotted it as it flew past very low over the woodland beyond the houses opposite where I live. It quickly disappeared from view flying south but at 12:15 p.m. presumably the same bird returned, again calling, and flew through in a north-westerly direction.

I had my first Common Buzzard record from my flat for the year (a single bird) on 7th March 2022.

This has been followed by further sightings on ....
