[easylife]

Just watched the Red Kites on Spingwatch, as anyone visited Gigrin farm near Builth Wells? only its a bit out of the way for most people, fancy a visit if I'm anywere near anytime.

It's a place I would love to go to, pity it is not a bit closer ... Is there a prefered time of year to go? ie When the light is generally better?

Blue skys can be good, but in Rhayader you often get 'white out' due to low cloud etc. A good summers day will bring in the birds in lower no's than in the winter but offer opportunities after most people have left. A crisp, clear winters day would be best but it's a gamble...
Book the tower hide in advance ok it's £15 but worth it IMO.
