Prompted by the recent thread on a possible sighting of a Black-breasted Buzzard in Brisbane (SE Queensland), subsequently identified as a Wedge-tailed Eagle, I have uploaded a couple of photos of a real Black-breasted Buzzard to my Flickr account. These photos can be seen at:

or go to:

and select the Black-breasted Buzzard 'Set' of photos.

Please note I am not criticising Scott Henderson for his error in identification. It is often a lot easier to identify birds from photos than it is in the field. Having the luxury of a stationary target and a shelf full of reference books to peruse at leisure is a wonderful thing when compared to the often momentary view available in the field.
