Default Buzzards

In the garden on Saturday morning, we were pleased to see a group of five buzzards circling overhead and slowly moving west.
Then in the afternoon, just at the limit of visibility we saw another group of twenty plus riding the thermals doing the same.
Never seen so many together although have heard of it before.

The last few weekends we've had a group of 8 then 5 mewing Buzzards over the garden.....as you say a great sight aren't they?
I think that maybe they are family groups.....20 must have been a superb sight!!
