Red Kites have become quite a common sight in the sky around where I live, normally I just watch them soaring around near our house and loving their aerobatics. Often you hear one calling from a tree nearby. The other day I had my phone on hand and tried to get a photo of one with that
I was quite pleased when I managed to get a shot of one flying over
Zooming in 10x's bright me a little closer
A nice looking bird
And I'm sure it was watching me while I took photo's a few moment later it was flying off from the tree and swooping over my way. it was huge but too fast for a shot with my compact. It was most likely a female from the size as they tend to be bigger than the males.

oh he's lovely, good shots
That's a very nice looking bird. You got some good shots.
We see a few here, but far more if I venture over the border into Hertfordshire. Amazing to think that I once travelled to Wales for the chance to see Red Kites.
That's a marvelous bird! So regal!
Thanks for sharing at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2020/12/i-miss-fall-colors.html
Yes very handsome
Not bad considering what I used
The close ones were done with a Canon SX740 zoom
They never disappoint when I see them
Thank you
Yes I remember going to see them once, then saw them around the campsite we stayed at but around here we only used to see a few now they are really common.
Yes Very regal
Quite a formidable bird!
They are becoming a common sight but I still get a thrill when I see one.
They are quite regal, aren't they! You got some awesome shots.
Your link at 'My Corner of the World' this week is an exciting addition! Thanks for joining us!
