Red Kite Country, pips

Evening shadows start to form as Red Kite hunt over a freshly harvested field in Kirkcudbrightshire, please see pips, although they are not as close as I would have hoped, but I seldom carry a longer lens when walking,

Large please.

Even without the kites this would have been a really beautiful image Roger............it's superbly composed in lovely sunshine with a wonderfully fresh and green landscape and a lovely little house perfectly situated in the frame!

The kites are the icing on the cake, so to speak. Just fantastic!!

Superbe paysage champêtre dans une composition agréable ***** Le ciel bien bleu montre bien le ballet des milans en quette de proies! Les PIP bien capturés les montrent bien en détail ! Excellent partage très apprécié, bon dimanche, Roger !

A wonderful Summer scene here Roger. The Red Kites really make the shot though and your well done PiPs are much appreciated. I am amazed that you should catch four together like this but as I never really see any, it may have been easy for you :) Well done.

Thanks for sharing with our UK Landscape Photography Group , Herb

Lovely to see these majestic birds together above such a beautiful landscape Roger. We have a number resident our local foreset and quite often see them together like this. Sometimes it appears to be the parent birds teaching the youngsters how its done! I have yet to get a shot anywhere near a good as yours.

Enjoy your week Roger

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to Doug Shepherd ^club

Excellent comments Doug, thank you,
Early evening and the farmer was out bailing hay and up to twenty of these birds were wheeling and diving for small prey, having quickly exhausted supply they followed the bailers on to the next field,
