Hi, I took these last August at a Bird Sanctuary by Ross, take a look and any advice is more than welcome.

Very nice images Ian ... ... unusual to see a captive Red Kite on display ...

Love the detail in number 4

Not a lot wrong with those Ian, Bald Eagle crop is a little tight on its "looking into" side but is nice and sharp

Its unusual for me get any bird in flight yet alone a Kite, the place was great and I got some lucky shots.

Great shots, well done !
I recognise the stump in photo #3 ( I really must get out more )!!
I believe the shots were taken at the National Bird of Prey Centre at Newent.
Up to 2004 it was run by Jemmima Parry Jones MBE. She then moved her birds to America and was given the 'run around ' for 3 years, so she's just shipped them all back and is starting a new centre near Hereford.
Details can be found here http://ifojpj.org/jpj.html
Sorry to hi jack your post with this info, but it means there'll be another venue for BOP fans soon. She says she'll be open in July.

( Now tell me it's not that stump ............!!)

Thanks for all the comments (looking forward to July hope she takes the stump with her) How about a meet at a BOP sanctuary?
