August top trumps. Don't let the buzzards get you down

[MegBusset]

Am holidaying in Cornwall and there are buzzards everywhere, nearly ran one over in a country lane as we turned a corner and it was sitting quite unconcerned in the road. When we beeped it flapped slowly into a tree and sat looking quite cross at the inconvenience.

All our other holiday spots so far have been roadkill :(

I saw a Dark Green Fritillary which made me very happy and some Gatekeepers and Meadow Browns but buzzards quite scarce around here owing to all the bloody gamekeepers. Foxes a rare sight too. (What it is to live in the country with the landed gentry on the doorstep.)
Love Cornwall- all the wild flowers. Saw seals there last week.

New tv show: Mind the Buzzards

Sea eagles. Minke whales. Dolphins. Porpoises. Puffins. All in one day.

Are you in Shetland Nemo :)

Shedloads of buzzards.

Several red kites all circling over something (dead sheep?) Looked like vultures over the savannah

It was on Skye. An amazing place. So impressed.
