Common Buzzard
Buzzards are sizeable and chunky birds with large, broad, blunt-ended wings, fairly short, broad tails and short, rounded heads. They can show a variety of plumages but they are generally dull brown with darker areas at the wrists and paler panels in the primaries. Notice how the wings are swept upwards and forwards when they soar. Breeds
in moorland valleys, woods, farmland and cliffs. Winters in breeding
habitat and other areas of open country.
