What kind of bird is this

@lotfi [lotfi31@cirtensis.net] Any idea what kind of bird this is? There where three of them in a "swarm". At the first glance I thought it is a red kite, but the shape of the tail does not fit somehow.

It's a common buzzard, recognisable by the V below the neck and the slightly rounded tail.

It's springtime. Many are currently on their way back to their breeding grounds. The kites have already arrived here in southern Europe.
Nice pics.

Many birds to watch over here. Also the goosander is (very) common here. We spotted many of them around the coast of "Greifswalder Bodden". @lotfi [lotfi31@cirtensis.net] You did recognize them on a picture some time ago...
