Thursday this week was Red kite day at the house, where this one kept circling back to hover-glide over our garden and the nextdoor field, in search of food. Unfortunately, it was out of luck, and in the end, glided off to somewhere hopefully more bountiful. The grace and agility of these birds on the wing is quite simply breathtaking. Had it not been for work, I could have watched it for hours.

Ça faisait longtemps que le milan royal n’avait pas posé si près du ciel bleu d’un azur oriental, sans vergogne ni esclandre. #bird #oiseau #milvusmilvus

I’m really bad at getting pictures of birds in flight, so was quite pleased with this shot when I was at Welney.

De là-haut, sous un ciel bleu-nuage, il militait en abîme de sa condition terrestre. Plumes et artifices n’en attendaient pas moins de sa part grandissante et obsédante, royale mais pas trop. #milvusmilvus #oiseau #bird
