Rather distant and sat on the ground a long time before flying (I’d expected it to be the bird but needed it to fly before being sure). The pale Common Buzzard (along with four others) was also in the same field. My initial reaction when it was reported was that this was the bird, but no, a juvenile Rough-legged Buzzard it was.
Lots of Golden Plover (300+). Slightly less Lapwing (220+). Also lots of Thrushes, mostly Fieldfare (c.400?) and Redwing (c.200?).
