The following shots of a Harris Hawk were taken at the Raptor World Bird of Prey centre which is located within the Scottish Deer centre near Cupar in Fife.  If you do happen to cross paths with this impressive raptor then it is likely an escapee from captivity as they are normally resident in the USA and South America.  The in-flight shots are of the Hawk attempting to catch its food.

Common Buzzard

Here are a few shots of a common buzzard taken during a sunny afternoon at Western Turville reservoir near Aylesbury.  They were taken with my Sigma 150-500mm lens, obviously at the extreme end as the buzzard was soaring at high level.  They are not exactly as sharp as I would like but I suppose that is a limitation when trying to capture somewhat elusive wildlife.
