Where to spot
Highly adaptable, found in diverse habitats including open woodlands, wetlands, urban areas, and coasts across Eurasia, Africa, and Australia.
How to spot
Look for its dark, somewhat uniform plumage and moderately forked tail, which often appears wedge-shaped or shallowly forked in flight. It has a relatively lazy, flapping flight interspersed with soaring.
When to spot
Year-round in resident populations. Many populations are migratory, making spring and autumn key times for observation during their passage.
