Kite mark 2

Many thanks for your kind comments on yesterday's shots.
We have a lot of red kites in Buckinghamshire. I seem to have developed a mission to get a shot of the lowest flying one I can manage. I blame 365. ;-) This was today's best effort.
Watching them wheeling over a large area and the way they tilt their tails to shift direction is mesmerising.

Great effort - must be tricky to catch them - lovely things.

This is definitely magazine quality - wonderful shot. You must find yourself standing there watching them and shooting away, not wanting to leave. Just fabulous.
