Dave, this forum is very regularly checked by all the bird information services and the sightings within published on those services.

For the benefit of this thread, I did not post my sighting on any other bird services so these must have been other birders.

My wife is a non-birder who can recognise a buzzard as I have pointed them out to her when seen,was at Tescos Baguley on Monday 23rd and said she saw a Buzzard but looked differant as it was much brighter.
Could this have been the Honey ?,If so it must have been around the area for a few days.

We don't get many in the county full stop Sid!

Thanks Ian - my head is full of other raptors so I missed that one and we don't get many Honey Buzzards in Alty either

See the Carrington Moss thread Sid

A Honey Buzzard in Altrincham was reported on a couple of the bird services today. Anyone aware of the bird??
