Frustrating!

Why do raptors seem always to be just that little too far away....
I understand the new 'in' word for a group of raptors is a kettle: so here's a kettle I came across near Hemblington church. One was a Marsh Harrier, one was a Buzzard, but the third was a whopper with a white rump. These pics are the best I could manage: I'd say the birds were a mile and a half away!
Also saw an adult Turtle Dove on wires along Hemblington Hall Road... Wonder if it's one of ours dispersing?
