Spotted these two big birds high in the sky heading towards Birmingham this afternoon. Help with ID would be very much appreciated.

First one could be an airbustard
 They breed quite prolifically around Toulouse in France, but tend to migrate to all parts of the world.

The wings of the Airbustard are made right here in Chester (well just up the road in Broughton). The French migrants wouldn't get any where without help from the UK
