Honey Buzzard in the New Forest - slightly closer!


24 July - a morning visit to the northern edge of the New Forest mainly for dragonflies - Black Darter and Keeled Skimmer seen - I scanned for birds as well and had reasonable views of a Honey Buzzard as it circled south of Slufter's Pond - over the A31 towards Acres Down - floppy compact, flat silhouette with a very mobile tail. Dartford Warbler heard as well.
