January 9, 20205 yr Great shot! Would you please be so kind as to tell us which camera, lens, setting etc. you used? Did you know, that this forum has a Birds-in-Flight category as well?
January 10, 20205 yr Author Thank you so much. I've used a Sony A9 and the 100-400GM with the tc 1,4x EXIF: 262mm, 1/4000", f/8; ISO 1600 Yes, I knew. The next time I'll put there ?
March 4, 20205 yr For me, birds photography is challenging if you want a clear, closer and better view of birds. Did you provide that perch or was there before? How long did you have to stay there before buzzard's arriving?
March 4, 20205 yr Author No, I've put me that perch. I've been studying those couple of buzzard for several years. For photographing them I build a photographic blind about 10 meters from the perch under a tree. Generally you have to wait at least some hours before they arrive, but often they don't come as well.

Of course going really often in the same place permit you to better understand animals' behavior, and to have more chance to get their movements or the place where they prefer to stay, and the hunting area as well.
