Red Kite meets Buzzard
Not sure if this is too predictable :biggrin: :biggrin: but here go`s

One from a very dull ( light wise ) Gigrin.

I liked how the Kites bombed the Buzzards at will.

It was good to meet up with everyone :smile:

D700
400mm 2.8 with 1.7TC
1/350 sec at f5.6 ISO 1000
Tripod

A good bit of interaction and good to get an indication of each bird's size when seen together like this.

Very predictable Ian . . . tut, tut, tut :biggrin:

Difficult shot, good skill.
