Kites & Buzzards

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 

 So here are a few of the photos I took of them

Red Kite after taking a swipe at the mice

A buzzard flying past

Then landing in a tree

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.
