Red Kites

We are just back from a relaxing lunch at Glyndwr Plants & Coffee Shop, just outside Corwen.  As I got out of the car I saw a pair of kites, right over Bron-y-Graig.  This is tremendously exciting as I have never seen them here before - they look huge.   I remember the buzzards arriving several years ago; now we have kites!  They are splendid.

Wagtail update - they all flew the nest successfully and the yard is disappointingly quiet.  I suppose they are all in the surrounding woodland somewhere.  One of them got stuck under the kitchen drain cover and spent two hours calling for help.  I know you shouldn't interfere but it was exhausted.  Eventually I carried it over to the cobblestones right under the nest and within 10 minutes an adult had arrived to shepherd it to safety.  Mungo slept through the whole episode.
