          Very nice set Les. Especially like #1. Nice to see them without wing tags!

                When they originally released (around 15 years ago) a number of kites around Harewood, they all had wing tags, now you rarely see one with tags, although a lot have small leg rings.
                And who says wild bird shooting is difficult, I was sitting outside the Village Hall Cafe having a nice cuppa when I took these
