The Buzzard movement continued today when IG rang me to say a Buzzard was over Boothtown and heading in a westerly direction . The bird was heading towards DJS area but a phone call found him otherwise engaged so the next call was to NCD at Roils Head. Unfortunately the bird didnt pass over his area but instead must have veered in the usual direction of >NW. Thanks for the call Iain. That was the only excitement for today as everything was quiet over Queensbury probably due to the dreaded SW wind.
This was confirmed also by NK who had little success on Soil Hill.
