Record from my flat - Common Buzzard

I usually see Common Buzzards from my flat by first being alerted to their distinctive “mewing” call.

However, this morning at 11:50 a.m., I just happened to look out of my lounge window and saw a Common Buzzard flying past in a northerly direction and being hotly pursued by a Carrion Crow.

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