Just got a print of this one for the farmer who alerted me to the red kites following his plough just down the track from us.

A Red Kite and a Black Kite manoeuvre close together in flight against a muted blue-grey sky. The paler Red Kite banks above with its forked tail visible, while the darker Black Kite turns sharply beneath it, creating a sense of aerial interaction.

Good Morning Bluesky Folks!

My first capture features a photograph of Two House Sparrows that I photographed in a hedge on my iPhone 17 Pro!

A crisp photograph features two House Sparrows (Passer domesticus) perched at different heights against a plain, pale grey sky.
Lower Male Sparrow: Positioned just above a dense, leafy bush, displaying distinct male markings including a dark black bib, grey crown, chestnut nape, and rich brown streaked wings.
Upper Sparrow: Perched higher up on slender, bare branches, exhibiting the softer brown-and-tan streaked plumage typical of a female or juvenile.
Foreground & Setting: The base of the image features lush foliage dotted with small red berries (rosehips), set against an uncluttered sky that highlights the clear details of both birds.

Goodnight Bluesky Folks!

On my way home from work today, I managed to capture a few pictures of a Red kite soaring in the sky with my iPhone 17 Pro!

Head & Facial Features: Features a sharp pale gray head, a bright yellow beak with a black tip, and a keen, focused gaze.
Plumage & Details: Shows rich reddish-brown body plumage, dark primary wingtips, white underwing patches, a classic deeply forked rufous tail, and yellow talons tucked close to its belly.

A Red Kite (Milvus milvus) is soaring mid-flight diagonally across the frame against an overcast, light gray sky.

For all that six foot wingspan the red kite is a bit of a softie. Its feet and talons are weak so it mostly scavenges carrion and roadkill rather than catching prey of its own.

Red Kite

I post a lot of Red Kites but it's because I have a lot of archive pictures of them going back 15+ years.

Red Kite in flight, wings outstretched, taken in bright sunlight against a clear blue sky in the Scottish Borders a while ago.
