Where to spot
Highly adaptable, found in woodlands, agricultural land, moors, and even suburban parks across Europe and temperate Asia.
How to spot
Look for its broad, rounded wings and short tail. Listen for its distinctive mewing call, often compared to a cat. Plumage is highly variable, but typically brown with a pale underside. Often seen soaring in wide circles or perched prominently.
When to spot
Year-round in most of its range, with some northern populations being migratory. Most visible during soaring displays in spring and summer, particularly over open country.

Common Buzzards are notorious for their highly variable plumage, ranging from very dark brown to pale cream, sometimes with complex patterns, making individual identification challenging and unique.

Volgens mij is dit een buizerd, echter ChatGPT beweert dat het een bruine kiekendief is. Wie kan mij zekerheid verschaffen?
