another Honey





I can seem to bump into these birds but there is never any light; this bird was over Thornton Abbey this morning as I drove past; the visitors to the ancient monument seemed mildly perplexed by the screeching brakes and a paparatzi photographer jumping out and blasting away into the sky before jumping in the car and following an unseen object down the road at high speed but maybe they thought I was after the Beckhams helicopter;
the Honey was mobbed by two Kestrels and then two Common Buzzards and while I watched amazingly 8 more Common Buzzards appeared from a great height to join the raptor throng in a spot where Common Buzzards are rare! Now if only I can get a low bird in nice sunshine with a blue sky
