Red Kite on the wing

The Red Kites (Milvus milvus) are returning more regularly now. This handsome chap was a little smaller that the one that flew over last week, so I'm guessing more likely to be a male bird. I am really pleased that this family group seems to have overwintered well and making plenty of overflights again. Apologies to regular visitors to my photostream who may be getting a bit tired of looking at photos of Red Kites - can't resist grabbing a shot, it's good practise for panning with a longer lens attached.
