They are great birds but really fast and dont land just dive and grab the food so was hard to follow them

Cracking shot, as Ian implies shame about the other kite in the background, adore the sideways glance.

Two very good captures, especially the first. It's a pity they have those tags on from a photo point of view.

I love Red Kites, and they're a couple of good shots :thumbs:

I have some about 40 minutes away in the Chilterns; you often see them on the bottom end of the M40 South of Oxford, hanging in the sky.

Must get out there with the camera...
