Red Kite Resting (2) (Milvus Milvus)

I posted a picture of a Red Kite resting in a huge cherry tree in our neighbours' garden about 40m from our house. A second bird joined him (or her) yesterday. They have since been steady visitors and a very desirable watching object. As this pic is better than the one I posted a couple of days ago I would like to share it.
