Description

Yesterday I posted a picture of what I think is a buzzard. But several visitors said that it did not look like a buzzard but more like some kind of scavenger. In Holland however scavenging birds are an unknown phenomenon. I was puzzled by the fact that many Americans have a different concept in their mind of buzzard features than I do. I think this maybe is the solution.. maybe they look slightly different in America than they do in Europe. That wouldn't be so strange.. maybe the buzzard has subspecies. The today photograph shows some geese on their way to the water. I am pretty sure this is the one and only greylag (Anser anser in Latin)..hehehehe.
