Red Kite(Milvus milvus)

30-04-2024, 15:25

Was out on a walk this afternoon and saw this Red Kite flying after the farmer ploughing his field. Pleased with this different view of the bird. They do seem to be the most common bird around where I live!

Taken with the EOS R8, RF 100-400mm F5.6-8 STM.
