Dundee Birding....(target 150 in 2024).
While travelling through the Scottish borders (along the A708 Moffat - Selkirk road) on holiday a few weeks ago, I snapped a bit of an airborne fracas from the moving car. It's not really in focus and has been cropped, so it's not the best. Wish we'd been able to stop, so I could have got better photos (and a definite ID for all 3).
I'm pretty sure the top bird is a Crow - possibility of Raven, given the location, sizewise Carrion Crow seems more likely though. The bottom bird appears to be marked like a Buzzard. I've been unable to pull any sort of colour from the middle bird (although there may be a few slightly lighter areas on the underwing) despite playing around in Capture NX2.
Any suggestions?
