Common Buzzard.
Scientific name: Buteo buteo.
Wild bird - photographed from a private hide in Cheshire, UK.
The buzzard is usually spotted soaring through the sky on its broad wings, which can span up to 60 inches. It has a stocky frame with a body length of around 20 inches. The buzzard’s plumage is highly variable, with some individuals being dark brown, while others are almost entirely white. Generally, though, they are brown with a pale underside, and juveniles will be lighter. Info: Birdfact.com
