Today was a fantastic day, made so by the visit of a gorgeous pair of Red Kites to our area of south Wales.We were visited once before earlier this week by a single individual, but this is the first time I've seen a pair. They were circling the area, so obviously not just flying through on their way to somewhere else. One of our local buzzards was circling just above them, probably wondering who these intruders were. He was tiny in comparison to these large birds of prey.

I took a few quick snaps of one of the individuals through our front window at a huge distance - so obviously not the best of photos. I've placed it in the gallery anyway as it's the only photo we have, but do hope that we'll get another crack at it and replace it with a better photo. Would be a brilliant thing if they became a resident in our area :)
