I went to my local tip today (I know, how the other half live!) I only get there every three months or so and I'm very used to the sky above there being dark with gulls looking for an easy meal. But today a new kid on the block was very much in evidence. Red Kites were everywhere. I didn't have time for a proper count but there was always five in sight. I see the odd one above my house but to see that many in one place was astounding. :nod:

Good spot JS, and a sight to behold.

I keep considering to going to one of the feeding stations, but all the ones I know of are too far for a day trip

They do make an impressive sight Jack. A visit to a feeding station where they get dozens of them PB is well worth it :nod:

I was VERY reluctant to go to one of them feeding stations as spoils the thrill of the chase ...was bored after a few mins as was so many kites....just saying :shrug:
