Cosford Airshow Jaguar and Eagle?

Any one else notice the Eagle (?) with the Jaguars early Sunday morning. Can anyone identify what it is?

Agree with the above, definitely Buzzards:

Got to say though, as their population increases (you can see them soaring over Dual Carriageways and Motorways very often) I never fail to enjoy any glimpse I see of them. A very majestic bird.

Cheers, MP

I have to admit to being lucky where birds of prey ar concerned as I live in an area with a respectable population of both Buzzards and Red Kites.

you would be right 🙂 Small feet are another giveaway for buzzards!

This colour shows the underwing colours of a common buzzard 🙂 So id say you’ve definitely got a pair of buzzards there
