Buzzards















We spent a night above the Top Flash on the Shropshire Union (Middlewich Branch), which is near a place called Clive Green.

It was a lovely rural mooring & we spent the afternoon being over-flown by buzzards. I counted six at one point, although there could have been more as my view was partially obscured by trees.


Juvenile buzzard (adults have a black terminal band on the tail)

Darker morph juvenile
I also found another Pea Weevil.............typical, of all the bugs in the world, I found one of the few I've already managed to find & identify so far!
