It took a while but eventually he found the right spot for a bit of beak cleaning.

Hello Neil.

Superb and for me the best Buzzard image I've seen for a while.

I think I would just brighten the eye as it looks alittle to dark, other than that I would be over the moon with this shot.

Fantastic pose - especially the raised foot. Hope you have a little more space as it is a wee bit tight.

A little tight it may be, but the pose from the Buzzard more than makes up for that, cracking shot Neil.

I agree with the others but it's still a great capture.
Well done.

Thankyou all. I did crop a little to give more space below, I guess I need to re-do it. Thankyou.

Another fine shot in the series. The raised foot adds interest.

I really like this...with some stunning detail in the bird. The raised foot just adds to the shot.
