Good news, Vicky--thanks! Hope to see them when we are next over that way. I saw one fly over our garden in west Surrey just yesterday. There have been a couple in our area only a few miles away from us for several years now--beautiful birds.
Red Kites are spreading very nicely all over the country in recent years,a great bird to see and one the non birding public seem to take a great interest in.
I live on the Berks/Bucks border and have been blessed with increasing numbers in the last few years - great to hear they are definitely spreading further a field. A pure joy to see.
