Coming back along the A35 today (okay it was our Xmas party last night so maybe my eyes were not quite right!) I noticed a Common Buzzard (I assume) sitting on a fence post right by the roadside (I would say 500m south of the Cat and Fiddle Pub, on the north side, the fence is the boundary of the field that is a PYO in the summer).
I was really struck by how 'Arctic' it looked - whilst I have seen great colour variation in Common Buzzards I never remember seeing one quite so pale and with an all white chest.
I wish I could have stopped to get a better look.
