  • Eider
    The Common Eider is a true sea duck, found on the sea coasts across Europe and parts of North America.  They are hardly ever found away from their seacoast home.  It's primary diet is molluscs, which has caused some conflict with mussle farmers.  This is also Britain's fastest flying duck, found year round off the coasts.</br></br>  This bird is most well-known for what it lines its nests with, eiderdown feathers.  It was most prized for filling pillows and quilts, however these days replaced with alternatives and synthetics.  This practice does still continue, however is now carefully done and sustainable as they remove the down from the nest after the fledglings have left - causing no harm to the young.

  • Red Kite
    The Red Kite is a large bird of prey, part of the same family as eagles, buzzards and harriers. This is a relatively rare bird of Europe and Northwest Africa.</br></br> Here in the UK the population of this bird was down to a staggering handful of pairs in Wales. But due to reintroductions using German and swedish birds, populations are growing in both Scotland, Buckinghamshire, and the Chilterns. They have now been spreading over much of the UK. Most recently a population of 100 welsh birds has been agreed to begin reintroduction to Ireland, around the Wicklow Mountains area.</br></br> Because this bird is a scavenger, it is particularly prone to illegal poisoning, and shooting.
