He's making sure the frame's
wide enough for him to fly in, Chris:

"Yup! I can fit in here without damaging me wing feathers."

Excellent photograph. (I hope you didn't skid too much, screeching to a halt.)
 
This is a wonderful upward and colourfully lit capture Chris. A brilliant close up and well framed shot you have of this Buzzard, well done.
 
Love the way you caught the eye and how it fills the screen from corner to corner. Nice job, Chris.

Nice one Chris.

I had one flying round here at the beginning of lock down, then after a couple of weeks managed a distant flight shot. The last time I saw/heard them!! The breed on the hill about a mile from me, you'd think I'd seen them more often, wouldn't you LOL

A super picture this mate - very well done.
