Thanks Michel. It's a sort of a self-find, although I think the locals had already found it and were keeping it quiet. There's a branch with droppings on it just by the road, so maybe if I go back when there are fewer dogwalkers around it'll come a little closer.

Nice to see you've found one too. Hopefully you're able to come closer in the future. Nice adult bird too.
