A day without the strong winds and rain sent me to the Red Kite Feeding Centre in Wales for a very enjoyable session!

A red kite (Milvus milvus) dives to pick up food from the ground. A couple of hours at the red kite feeding station in mid-Wales gave me a chance to practice - the speed of change from graceful glide to rapid dive is impressive.
