Show Me A Photo Contest Round 207 - Free Theme - Buteo on a tree and on street lights

Buteos are one of the more common birds of prey here in Austria and I was already lucky to be able to take several pictures of these birds. Back in 2023 I was able to take some pictures of a buteo on a tree and one sitting on street lights. I really always enjoy watching birds of prey since they often look so majestetic. It was sitting on a street light and then flew to a tree when I got to close to the bird. It was sreeching and calling so maybe it was still a young bird that might have been calling its parents, but I am not really sure since it was already really big.
