Place already taken
Those birds are love to sit at this sunken electricity post. They are sometimes even fighting for the place on it. Full Flickr version: Canon 6D, Canon EF 100-400L ƒ4.5-5.6 IS USM, at 400mm, ISO400, 1/500, ƒ/5.6
Black-headed gull in flight (Larus ridibundus)
Found this one on a lake. It was angry about me getting close. Those lake gulls are typically not aware of many people passing by because lake it was captured is wild forest lake. So the bird was unhappy of my presence. Full Flickr Version: Canon 6D, Canon EF 100-400L ƒ4.5-5.6 IS USM, at 400mm, ISO100, 1/500, ƒ/7.1
Lots of swallows gathered for test flights before heading south

Long-legged Buzzard (Buteo rufinus)
It is similar in appearance to the Rough-legged Buzzard (Buteo lagopus), but it is larger and more robust. This is one of the largest species of Buteo. Length can range from 50 to 66 cm (20 to 26 in) and wingspan from 115 to 160 cm (45 to 63 in). Females, at an average mass of 1.3 kg (2.9 lb), are larger than males, at an average of 1.1 kg (2.4 lb).[2][3] There are many different colour forms, but usually Long-leggeds have a clear orange tint to the plumage, red or orange tail, pale head and largely white underwings. There is usually a distinctive black carpal patch and dark trailing edge to the wing. The rump and "trousers" are often dark or deep rufous. Plumage varies from ghostly pale individuals to very dark ones. Some plumages are almost similar to those of the Steppe Buzzard, the eastern subspecies of the Common Buzzard (Buteo buteo vulpinus), but Long-legged Buzzards have longer wings and are more like Rough-Legged buzzards or even a small Aquila eagle.
