19/11/2014 Rough-legged Buzzard again!

Wednesday 19th November 2014
Jevington

Friends Alan and Shaun from the East Grinstead RSP Local Group, who hadn't seen the Rough-legged Buzzard, planned to travel to Jevington so I said I would show them where to go.  It was another chance to see this lovely bird.

Within minutes of getting there we saw the Buzzard in all it's glory and we literally sat back and enjoyed 30 minutes or so of it's splendid flight routine, including the special hover action.

Also seen were 100+ Stock Doves, a Great-spotted Woodpecker, a few Meadow Pipits, a few Fieldfares and numerous Carrion Crows.

We moved on to Belle Tout wood to look for the 2 Tawny Owls that had been seen since our last try a few days ago but again we had no luck.


A lovely afternoon!
