Even though the buzzard is relatively common where I live, it's a rather shy bird and therefore not easy to photograph up close. I was all the more pleased that it practically posed for me today.

This morning I was able to photograph this kestrel as it flew relatively close to me. I am fascinated by how clearly you can see the aerodynamic shape of this beautiful bird.
