mistake of the year






as readers of the Lincs Bird Club forum will be aware I had a kite on May 21st over my local patch which I identified as a Red Kite but it was in fact a rather more interesting Black Kite the first for my patch, needless to say; views were against the light but I managed to get a few record shots of the bird with the two local Buzzards which were escorting it out of their territory; from the photos the wear on the left primaries seems to confirm that it was almost cetrainly the bird seen in North Norfolk from late April through to May 20th; these are the photos
