White (leucistic) Buzzard

Hi folks been a while since I have put up any posts.
I thought I would share this with you it is a White Buzzard, I seen it last Monday it took a while to catch it with my camera, it is a very tight crop.
It was taken with my canon100-400L.
The buzzard was on a post about quarter of a mile away and the light was not great. My next task is to try and get close enough to get some more detail.





Thanks for looking

Cheers Gordon ( Goggs )

Certainly a bit different, good spot and a good capture.

Hi Ken I have known about the Buzzard for a while but never went to photograph it,
As you know these birds have their favourite perch that they always can be found on.

The only thing is that its perch is about quarter of a mile away from the side of the road, as
You can see from the photos my 400mm lens was struggling with the distance the images here are tight crops.
I will go back with my 7D and 400mm lens and try and get more detail shots.
But thanks for the comment and great to hear form you
