This morning at 11:35 a.m., I had a very distant sighting of a raptor way beyond the houses opposite the flats where I live and likely over my Sr. Nicholas Church local patch site.
I could not immediately identify it as a Common Buzzard or Red Kite but eventually, through my binoculars, I confirmed it as the former.
Remarkably, this is my first sighting of a Common Buzzard from my flat since 18th October 2025, especially given the number of records since 2021.
Summary of Common Buzzard records during the last 6 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: 16 dates involving 25 birds
2026: 1 date involving 1 bird
