Title: Are these all Common Buzzards??
Post by Anguslau on Dec 20^th, 2004, 4:47pm

I thought I saw and photographed five individual Buzzards last Thursday. But I am not sure whether they are all Common Buzzards or not. I know it may be impossible to tell from the small/poor quality photos. :P Much appreciated if the expects can help me here. ;) Below are the images of them:

Buzzard #1: right wing feathers broken
