Winter is back and the few remaining Common Buzzards are having a go at each other about some scrap food. In situations like this it appears to be the younger ones which are the boldest and most aggressive. They are of course less experienced hunters compared to older birds and therefore perhaps more likely to go hungry, and f you are hungry you have to be bold when fighting for food. Here a one-year old (on the right) is challenging an adult (four years of age in this case), but the older one remained dominant in this struggle.
