Every summer ye see them circling high up in the air in my neighborhood,beside a big school with huge trees,but ye cant see them up close. Were I seen these two today theres loads in same fields durning the summer,I see if I can get closer next time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 At some point, I believe it's something to do the worms, Francie. Maybe the slight thaw, followed by the wet's bringing them up? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meece 1,958 Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 Yep buzzards. Never ever saw them down here in Kent up until about 5 years ago. Now there's quite a few around. They circle high up and make a high pitched sort of peew, peew sound. They are quite often seen perching on low branches or out on the sports ground field Quote Link to post Share on other sites
