Buzzard

Very quiet on this morning's walk.  A juv. Mute Swan in the early morning gloom had me going for a little while, appearing straight-necked, but a quick look at the head and bill pattern soon ruled out anything interesting.  A Buzzard flew over the reserve from Rakewood Road, disappearing over the big hedge before I could get any reasonable shots.  Otherwise, only two more additions to the year list - Pied Wagtail and Pheasant.
