Record from my flat - Common Buzzard

The 2023 Common Buzzard count is at last underway!

For the last 2 years, I have recorded Common Buzzard sightings from my flat. Sightings are increasing and last year I was almost convinced that there was a resident and possibly nesting pair in the area since I also frequently saw birds over my nearby local patch site around St. Nicholas Church.

This is the summary of my Common Buzzard sightings from my flat for the last 2 years ....

2021: 11 dates with those records involving 13 birds

2022: 26 dates with those records involving 38 birds

This morning at 8:55 a.m., I had my first Common Buzzard sighting since 8th October 2022 with a single bird flying over heading north hotly pursued by 2 Carrion Crows.

The 2023 count begins ....

February: 23rd (a single bird)

Here are some photos of a Common Buzzard taken at my local patch site around St. Nicholas Church in June 2022 ....
