    Raptor ID Help - Valdetorres de Jarama, Spain, 29 April, 2024

    Birding with a guide, Carlos, and took these pics between photos of Red Kite, Black Kite, Lesser Kestrel, Common Buzzard and others. I thought it was a Common Buzzard, but it isn't matching up to my satisfaction. The wing tips are quite square in some photos, the tail is only slightly rounded...
