Teal Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Buzzards will take pheasants poults- i've seen them! If you see birds hopping before the start of the season chances are it'll be a buzzard which has had a go! Saw 17 in the air at the same time (and i thought they were supposed to be territorial!!)
