Buteo buteo
The Common Buzzard measures between 40 and 58 cm in length with a 109–136 cm wingspan and a body mass of 427–1,364 g, making it a medium-sized raptor.
The Common Buzzard breeds in woodlands, usually on the fringes, but favours hunting over open land. It eats mainly small mammals, and will come to carrion. A great opportunist, it adapts well to a varied diet of pheasant, rabbit, other small mammals to medium mammals, snakes and lizards, and can often be seen walking over recently ploughed fields looking for worms and insects. The birds have incredible strength and are therefore able to pick up food of all weights.
