Bournemouth area - buzzards warning
This message is from a good friend of mine from a Yahoo group. The information was given to her by her vet, Tom Mowlem of Companion Care in Bournemouth.

"There are three pairs of nesting buzzards in the Bournemouth area - a pair in the parkland behind us and two pairs in a nearby park. Tom said they would snatch a bunny no problem - and frequently do ( He had treated a bun who had been landed on by a buzzard. The owner managed to scare it off before it had a chance to drag it away but the unfortunate bun lost a leg and was severely mauled. He was PTS.

Apparently the ones I have behind me are a very rare 'golden' buzzard and are bigger than normal ones (which is why I honestly thought I had seen a golden eagle when it swooped in and took a pigeon)

Please be careful out there."

How rude! Golden buzzards are my favourite type!
