Default Buzzard- Buteo buteo
I captured this lovely bird Which I think is a buzzard over Moore Green Nature reserve Lower Sandhurst which is right next door (so to speak) To Yateley Park where Horseshoe Lake is. Just separated by a fencing structure.

I saw one earlier in the morning but it was very high. Captured about 6 shots and but when I captured this in this afternoon I was really pleased.
