Nice set Fi ... ... the second looks like the chase is on with the small bird high-tailing it (although Kite's do not chase birds !) and the third would have been really good if we could see its head ... :shrug: ... but for only your second attempt they are not bad at all ...

thanx, there were loads of small birds ( field fares i think) i didint even realise i had the wee bird until i downloaded....... realise kites are usually scavangers but thought the wee one should stay in the shot anyway

Nice shots there, you were lucky to catch some without wing tags, or was that a bit of good cloning

Damn difficult to capture, so you have done well, No3 is my pick.
