The Azure Window

This is the Azure Window, we had lunch here. It's a great site, with great diving etc. We'd stopped for a break (8 hours after arriving on the island). Sadly, just as we got back to the car park, and Rodger was ringing in to say that we are back on the road, I raised my binoculars in time to see a broadwing (a collective term for a group of raptors like harriers and buzzards) that we use when we aren't sure what species it is, plummetting into the sea after being shot. We also saw a honey buzzard in the same area and heard a shot ring out, we didn't get a second sight of the honey buzzard. The police were in quickly, but no luck.
