On my several wildlife trips to the Inn River this year I was able to take a lot of pictures of different birds, but since I often shood pictures of birds flying I am always happy when I see a bird sitting somewhere where I can get some pictures of the perching bird. And this time I was able to take these pictures of the buteo perching on a branch of a tree near an open field where it was probably hunting for mice.
I was happy that I saw this bird up there on the tree because since it was not really moving it was not so easy to spot eventhoug its "white" color somehow sticks out.

some of the bird shots look very impressive.
Thanks, sad that it was a little bit far away.
Great photos. Hmm ... but indeed, for some reason he is white. Maybe leukism, or maybe it's just some kind another subspecies of buzzard, I don't know.
maybe just a white morphe. Buteos or Buzzards can hav a lot of different colors on their feathers. But usually it is more brownish.
