Re: Red kites in Wiltshire
Feb 18, 2010, 00:55
Apologies in advance for bumping this thread up, its just that this afternoon ...

... Not really by an ancient site but out walking with a friend along the Kennet Valley in Wiltshire - we had just climbed a stile into a meadow near the village of Axford going towards the River Kennet when a red kite appeared above us, circled and hovered; the best view I have ever had of a red kite.

Later as we walked through a copse near Ramsbury a pair of kites appeared, one actually landed in a field next to our path.
Very thrilling - there are red kites in north Wiltshire.
