Taken a few weeks ago at Loch of the Lowes.
Sitting quietly in the hide this flew past below the window. I jumped up and managed to grab a few shots as it flew past a different window into the trees.
My first thought was Sparrowhawk, but when I saw the pictures, thought Buzzard and someone else wondered about Red Kite (I've never seen one there, though they have been recorded).
Sorry about the awful pictures, I was in the darkness in the middle of the hide and shooting past people, just desperately trying to get an image.
I still think Sparrowhawk is the most likely, but your thoughts would be much appreciated.
