Hi all
We had a few Redkites in the area today as the farmers were making hay, so I had another bash at in fight shots with bright skies, the light was very bright but a few dark clouds kept changing light levels.
400+ shots and one very bored partner later, I think I have a few keepers, these were the first to get picked as they have the bird which was closest to me.
Happy to hear any Crit or to be told to just give up
Thank you for looking
This one was the bird gaining height under a bright cloud, after eating a catch in a field. (I did aim for some wing movement to add a sense of action, is this a done thing?)

This one was under a clear sky as it glided back to the 'group' for more.
