Until today, I hadn't seen a Common Buzzard from my flat or at my nearby St. Nicholas Church local patch site since 30th March 2023 and 17th April 2023 respectively. The early spring had provided me with regular sightings.
However, today at 12:30 p.m., I saw a single Common Buzzard flying in a southerly direction and being pursued by a Carrion Crow.
I have recorded Common Buzzard sightings from my flat since 2021. 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
