Amazing isn’t it Howard. Used to just be gulls following the tractor now it’s Kites. Had a couple following our little tractor the other day, swooping down.

At one point I counted 10 Red Kites over the field. They are in abundance in Buckinghamshire now........HB

Very few kites down this way although we do have a breeding pair of buzzards about a mile up the road from here. Often see them circling over the garden.

I think the most we had over our house is 27 plus a couple of buzzards.
