Perhaps it's just a plumage variation?!   Also this looks like an escaped bird to me since there was strap around its legs!!!       KK Hui ARPS www.geocities.com/kkhui_001 « Last Edit: May 21st, 2004, 3:00pm by BBS Moderators » Logged Yat-tung YU BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 133 Re: Buzzard « Reply #1 on: Jan 14th, 2004, 11:59am » Quote Modify Dear KK,   This is a juvenile Bonelli's Eagle. You can see that the underparts and underwing coverts are uniformly brown and all primary and secondary feathers, and undertail have many bars. Common Buzzard has prominent dark patch on carpal joint and would have paler underparts.   Please note that the bird carries a 'belt' on legs. It is very likely that the bird is escaped. In Hong Kong, I think it is legal to keep any raptor without special permission from AFCD.   Tung Logged 假鳥迷 BBS Member BBS God Have fun...     Posts: 112 Re: Buzzard « Reply #2 on: Jan 14th, 2004, 12:29pm » Quote Modify Quote: ...
