update: info through critiques. Thanks to Cuckooroller.
This is a Harris Hawk.(verified) IN Dutch...'woestijnbuizerd'.

Former info.
I think this is a Buzzard subspecies. Forgot the name but I'm quite convinced its habitat is situated in Russia,etc..

Found this in wiki...
Buzzard subspecies fall into two groups

The western buteo group are mainly resident or short-distance migrants. They are:

* Buteo buteo buteo: most of Europe
* B. b. rothschildi: Azores
* B. b. insularum: Canary Islands
* B. b. arrigonii: Corsica and Sardinia
* B. b. menetriesi: Caucasus
* B. b. harterti: Madeira, doubtfully distinct from nominate buteo

The eastern vulpinus group includes

* B. b. vulpinus (Steppe Buzzard): Eurasia: migrant breeder
* B. b. japonicus: Japan: resident
* B. b. trizonatus (Forest Buzzard): South Africa: resident

Yes it is! Got a very similar image to this - but yours is hands down better! Very dynamic - love the motion blur on the wingtips! Kudos! Cheers, Klaus

Amazing inflight shot!
Your gallery is everyday better...
