Common buzzard landing

Common buzzard landing



I have presented at length this species on my blog 1000 pattes-1000 tracks. We monitor it each year, especially the northern buzzards wintering in our area south of France. This specific individual lives here year round with its partner and we see them both together quite often; it looks like they hunt field mice as a team.

Buse variable en vol – J’ai longuement présenté ce rapace commun dans nos régions dans de précédents articles, j’espère être en mesure de pouvoir monitorer cet hiver à nouveau les buses nordiques qui viennent hiverner chez nous mais hélas, si j’en ai aperçu une à 10 kilomètres d’ici hier, elles ne se sont pas encore manifesté chez nous… L’hiver est encore trop doux!D’autres photos peuvent être vues ICI. Détails sur le comportement et le plumage ici: Buse variable, étude

Celle-ci est chez elle et reste fidèle à son territoire toute l’année. Son partenaire est présent également, il nous arrive souvent de les voir chasser les mulots ensemble.

Et enfin cette dernière photo de son partenaire qui vient la rejoindre et lui fait perdre l’équilibre !

Last but not least, this picture where the partner joins in and she looses her balance !
