Buzzard on the Rail! by rickster549

Buzzard on the Rail!

Wish some more attractive birds would land on the pier railing like that, instead of this homely looking fellow. Notice the white splotches on the feathers. Think this one is one of the low men on the roost perches in the evening. Yuck! :-) I know, TMI.
This is an impressive capture despite the homeliness of the subject. They really are a rather unattractive bird, aren't they. Bless their hearts tho, being stuck with looks that only a mother could, uh, love. (Does this guy have cataracts?? His eye looks cloudy.)

thanks Denise and Milanie. Not sure about the eye. Not sure if they have a special lens over it or not to protect it. :-)

@lynnz Thanks Lynn. Yeah, it just happened to fly by and land on the rail, really close. Fortunately, I was prepared for a couple of shots.
