Long-legged Buzzard

The long-legged buzzard is a bird of prey with a relatively large bill on a smallish head, long wings, a rather long tail and relatively long legs with powerful feet. It is highly variable in plumage, with three or four main morphs, and the pale morph adult's tail is light rufous-orange (Wikipedia, general species account).

It is adaptable to a variety of habitats and may nest on rocks, cliffs and trees. Juvenile plumage lasts two or three years, until first breeding (Wikipedia, general species account).
