One from today. I was watching a juvenile Common Buzzard (Buteo buteo) hunting, when it suddenly landed right next to me. It stayed for a while and I got many shots with more classic poses, but somehow I like this with the movement most.
My last posting apparently came out somewhat dark, I'm not so sure about my monitor anymore. Does this one seem right ?

Love the inquisitive look on this birds face Helge!!
It certainly adds a lot of life/vitality to the shot.
The brightness looks fine on my screen, and the image is a cracker

Great image, quite different to most Buzzard poses. I really like it and looks fine on my screen!
