Buzzard takes an osprey chick.

And the man behind the film finds this a "shocking act" - like the Common Buzzard is somehow evil? Our media just love stuff like this.

If a Song Thrush had taken a snail from his garden, wonder if he would acuse the bird of shocking behaviour?

What we need is BBC footage of a country gent blasting a Buzzard from the sky - now that really would be a shocking act!

And one of its biggest sporting highlights every year is the Grand National. Typical BBC hypocrisy!
