Possible		Did anyone see this bird coming out of woods near Lapwing site behind feeder site? I've seen buzzards but the wingspan and behaviour of this one didn't match. It looked big to me. Brown coloured bird. No obvious features except it had a clear gap on feathers on left hand wing when in flight. Could it be the eagle? It flew rapidly flapping about 10 times then slight pause then flap x10 again then slight pause etc etc Anyone know this bird? A buzzard went up later but in my view was no comparison to this raptor? Help ..... It flew off until out of site with bonocs with crow harrassing it. Please keep to the main paths.
