Clear sighting. 100% sure. Flying leisurely and relatively low overhead due south. Slow handful of wingbeats. Drooped wing glide. Slow handful of wingbeats. Drooped wing glide. Clear barring. Slim neck. Grey head. Long tail. Haven't had a better view, ever. I would assume perhaps a male that failed to breed this year (right sorta time for this (non breeding males to begin to leave) to happen).

Almost certain. Flying quite low(ish) (low enough to give me a relatively long, good view of shape if not markings, north west towards Binfield area. Didn't have my binoculars handy but very clear long tail, very 'necky' appearance, slower wing beat than common, obviously more angular wings than common... didn't strike me as anything else really. 90% sure I'd say.
