A little distant, but to my mind the light and angle was just right to see the lovely plumage of this (definitely not dead) Red Kite.

I live within Rockingham Forest so see them every day, but they still surprise me with their size. They're fantastic.
The crows don't agree with me though!

I think my local Red Kites actively tease the local crows and jackdaws by flying low over "their" woodland. They also seem to attract the fury of Magpies.

Is it true that you become obsessed with birds in your 30's?
