Red Kite near Whitchurch-on-Thames
I'd seen a few of these along the Thames this day and assumed that they were buzzards at first: not realising that Red Kites are common around here. This one seems to be carrying nesting materials, and was calling to its companion (mate?) nearby. It was soon seen off by a crow!
