Hi,
It looks like a juvinile light-phase common buzzard to me. I currently have two of them at my local patch (Shenstone) with very similar markings.
When they hang on the wind or thermals, gliding along they can hold there wings in such a position. Myself and Tony Smith had 3 over the flashes this afternoon looking very similar.

Hi Rob common buzzard, there are lots of varying shades of buzzards around the reserve at the moment, it is looking un-buzzard like probably because its fighting against the wind

Could this bird have been the source of the RPD Honey Buzzard? from a fleating view i suppose H Buzzard would be a posibility?
