Buzzard...they like to sit still and just keep watch.
Also, have a pretty stocky round body with dull plumage and a short tail...
The grey head makes it look like a Red Kite to me. Also, have a pretty stocky round body with dull plumage and a short tail...
And Google Lens said Dunnock too. Really can't recommend it enough for flora and fauna identification...
I stand corrected sir !

What do think this is?
I think it nests on the ground in meadow/moorland, shape and size of a Tern. Is black and white (in the way a Magpie is) it has a solid black and white stripe down the length of it's wings. Has a bright deep orange coloured beak and makes shrill two syllable noise as it's flying around.
It's not a Lapwing/Peewit.

Ahh, until your edit I was thinking lapwing….I think it nests on the ground in meadow/moorland, shape and size of a Tern. Is black and white (in the way a Magpie is) it has a solid black and white stripe down the length of it's wings. Has a bright deep orange coloured beak and makes shrill two syllable noise as it's flying around.

Oystercatcher. I think it nests on the ground in meadow/moorland, shape and size of a Tern. Is black and white (in the way a Magpie is) it has a solid black and white stripe down the length of it's wings. Has a bright deep orange coloured beak and makes shrill two syllable noise as it's flying around.

Over many years I'd hear a bird flying high in the middle of a winter night and making a call but I couldn't identify it without seeing it. Any guesses? Some will know.
Sounds like Skylark behaviour.http://www.garden-birds.co.uk/birds/skylark.html
