Monday animal photography: Common buzzard

It's always a pleasant meeting when I come across a bird of prey during my travels across the country ...

This time it was a beautiful Buteo buteo, commonly known as common buzzard, peacefully resting on a road pole!

Photo taken in the Baixo Alentejo region (Southern Portugal)
