Quail perches on a buzzard's wing, Lake Como, Italy - 12 Feb 2011

Buzz Off! Plucky Quail Uses Buzzard As Perch
This plucky quail certainly ruffled a few feathers by narrowly escaping a ferocious attack after brazenly perching on the wing of a buzzard.
The small bird found itself in the David and Goliath scenario when it unwittingly got in a flap with one of its biggest predators.
Incredibly, the fortunate bird managed to escape unscathed from the action, and the buzzard had to make do with going hungry.
Photographer Francesco Renzi captured the remarkable moments one morning while cloaked in camouflage in order to get up close and personal with the birds.
The 45-year-old said: "I was taking photographs for hours and nothing was really happening, but in a second that all changed.
"I heard a noise and quickly turned round in time to see a quail land right in front of my hiding place in the middle of the meadow.
"I took some photos of it and suddenly a buzzard swooped down, aiming for the quail.
"Somehow it managed to miss the target and incredibly the quail just hopped on to the wing of the aggressor.
"I couldn't believe what was happening right in front of my camera. It lasted a few seconds, the buzzard was clearly surprised and then a tractor noise disturbed the pair.
"The quail then flew away while the buzzard was still trying to work out what was going on.
"It was amazing and while it happened I had stopped breathing, I was just trying to keep focused and take as many photos as I could of the action."
The father of two, who took the photographs near Lake Como in Italy, added: "When you have the chance to witness moments like this, it doesn't matter if it's cold or if you're tired, all that is forgotten.
"The only thing you feel is gratitude, happiness and a boost of energy to go on discovering nature's new incredible moments."
