The other day my wife and I were watching this tractor raking up the hay in a field nearby
while overhead an aerial display was going on
The Red Kites were swooping after small rodents like mice & voles
There was more than one
Red Kite after taking a swipe at the mice
A buzzard flying past
Then landing in a tree
Kite on the wing
Red Kite trailing Grass
A kite and Buzzard flying past each other and another pair of kites one trailing a grass tail
This crow tried to dive bomb the Kite, he just swerved out the way as you can see.
Not sure if he has a mouse of is claring the grass away, eitherway this is how they feed on the wing
Another taking a peck at somthing while flying
I'll finish with the buzzard as he few away.
Taking Park in Our World Tuesday

One of those wonderful moments Nature offers up - right place and camera to hand. Fabulous!!! YAM xx
Great series!!Boom, Bobbi and Gary.
You got some fantastic shots of the show in the sky. I bet the tractor was stirring up the field mice so the birds were taking advantage.
They're very handsome birds!
What a fantastic series of photos! These birds are so beautiful and fascinating! Amazing!
What a show! And you didn't have to pay admission either.
Nice work Bill. I think we have so many Buzzards around here because there are no kites. It will be interesting to see what happens when we get kites - if we do.
