Just had a phone call from Dave Hutley and M Dent to let me know they had a dark Honey Buzzard over Bowyers Water. I then saw the bird, fairly distantly from...

An excellent weekend at Crossness, with 4 Patchlist additions, 3 of which were patch ticks (including both my silliest patch bogey birds!) Sat: 105 Med Gull -...
Gary, Good garden spot. Nice tick. I asked around our group's birders, (since it went SW and conceivably could have passed over Stoke N), but it wasn't spotted...

Dear All I am not very well acquainted with honey buzzards but a large unidentified raptor flew over my garden (c100 m west of Bowyers water) late that ...
Hi Dave, It's certainly possible, assuming the time component isn't outrageosly at odds. Did you pick-up on any plumage or structural features? Atb, Des. ... ...
Hi Des The time seems about right although i didn't check it. As mentioned i have never seen a honey buzzard - but plenty of common buzzards, red kites marsh ...
Amazing - let's hope it gets out. There's no worse fate in my book than being trapped in the soft furnishing. It reminds me of a Wren on the Northern Line a...

Hi Dominic, Des, Dave, Paul, Roy et al, Interesting to hear of the subsequent sightings in north-east London. I was lucky enough to get really good views over...
Hi Mark Hadn't realised you had photographed the Stoke Newington Honey Buzzard too - amazing results for a fly-over raptor through bins, and reminiscent of...
RBA is reporting a Great White Egret on Aveley Marsh, viewable from the seawall, at 8.20 this morning. It would be a London tick for me but, in common with all...
