    And there was me thinking it might be a Harris Hawk, perhaps I'll see a Red tail in the US next year.

    He's a beauty! I love Buzzards, they are my favourite birds by far [​IMG]
    They're using birds of prey in St.Ives at the moment to try and stop the gulls attacking the tourists. Personally I think we should have a cull every Winter (gulls not birds of prey!) It could become a Cornish National Sport :D :D
