Kestrels and a Kite

I saw a Red Kite heading West over Colyford at 12:10, a scruffy individual so not one of the other recent birds I've seen locally. I'm seeing them/more every few days at the moment so it makes me wonder where they are lingering...

All 5 Kestrel chicks from the nest box near to Discovery Hut have now been on the wing and affording nice views at times.

Wader numbers are still increasing with 21 Redshank and 10 Lapwing on Black Hole Marsh at 21:00 last night (26th).

The bird on the left of the pic was the last to fledge
