Record from my flat - Common Buzzards

After seeing my first Common Buzzard for many months from my flat on 22nd March 2025 and another on 25th March 2025, this morning I saw 3 birds soaring and “mewing” together in the sunshine at 8:50 a.m.

Unfortunately, I had only just left home so I was not in my flat to get any photos from the window. File under missed photo opportunity!

This was only my third record this year of Common Buzzard from my flat although I have seen them occasionally on my nearby St. Nicholas Church local patch site.

Sightings of Common Buzzard have been much lower in the last few years after a peak of activity during 2022. However, 2025 is already an improvement on 2024.

Summary of Common Buzzard records during the last 5 years:

2021: 11 dates involving 13 birds

2022: 26 dates involving 38 birds

2023: 8 dates involving 8 birds

2024: 3 dates involving 3 birds

2025: 3 dates involving 5 birds
