I have just got back from a week in Dumfries, South west Scotland.
I went there last year around this time and the birding was pretty good, whilst there we went back to the Red Kite feeding station.
Here are some of the shots I got, hope you like them.
This last shot is definitely my favourite, it was just a great angle the bird came in at.
Photos taken with Nikon D70 + Sigma 170-500mmThanks everyone who keep dropping by, I know i'm not posting as much as I would like, but working on it, Mike.

Cheers Warren, they are stunning birds to see, nice spot on your patch.
Like them??? Mike, these are wordless and stunning shots. Gosh I would like to get them in flight like that!!! Magnificent!!!
Wow Mike- I wouldn't want this bird looking at me like that. The holes in its wing feathers make it look like its been in a few battles. Very nice work.

Awesome seriues, the 2nd shot is shocking, the bird has some feathers missing and agree with you on the angle on the 3rd.
WOW very kind of you all thanks.
