Near Gatwick Airport Janie
They looked pretty big ,but although we have a lot of countryside around here I have never seen a buzzard. Kestrels have a go at the Blue and great tits on occasion. A larger Sparrow hawk came into the garden
recently ,but these birds looked bigger and were very high up. The flight path is near and I would fear for their lives long term.
A pair of Buzzards in the Gatwick /Crawley area, that would certainly be a first.
