Fantastic 👍😎👍

A few years ago we joined the P&O cruiseship Oriana in Southampton and on the 1st day at sea we saw a Buzzard on the upper decks... chatting with the stewards they said he/she/it had been on board since Portugal & Lisbon 3 days before...

We found it stayed on and around the ship till we got to Cadiz. It became quite a celebrity 😁...

Then it disappeared probably just enjoyed a bit of a rest and hospitality (the Stewards had kept it fed with chicken wings.... 🙂 from the galley kitchens)
