Buzzard down Snakey

Today involved a trip to Teeside for ongoing Hip issues. The day started with a significant bird sighting in the form of a Buzzard (H.91, P.153) along Snakey lane. We watched it playing in the wind for a good 10 minutes. I wondered if it was possibly one of the pair seen by my neighbour a couple of weeks ago?

Got back home around 5. Took Bud up to Out Newton were I did an hours seawatching. There was a strong North Westerly blowing but the only birds I saw (literally, not even a gull)) were 8 Common Scoter flying North!

Just took my tablets for the England game. Frank's hundredth cap. Couldn't happen to a nicer chap...hope he notches to cap (sorry) it off...
