The Buzzards ( or Buzzardy type birds) are back.Like a scene from the battle of Britain over our finca,all heading up river.If I remember it was the same this time last year just after the bad weather.Does anyone know exactly which species they are.

These looked bigger than that and there were hundreds of them.I even tried to get a closer look by offering the cat as sacrifice, but no takers.

Sounds like the annual Honey Buzzard migration to me, although a bit early. They normally arrive just before or just after storms / rain.

These birds are not Buzzards but are rare Cataloonian Vultures,who will allways be seen hovering over British owned Fincas.They are bred and fed by the Adjuntament to pick the bones of English finca owners, who have not survived the winter due to being forced off their land by lack of Cedulars and escalating Rate bills etc.
These Vultures save the new Catoloonian owners from having to pay out to bury the previous English owners.
These owners,usually pensioners, have died as Paupers,having spent all their hard earned money renovating Allotment sheds,which are then purchased for half there true value by shrewd Catalooonian investors,who then begin the same buying and selling cycle again !
