Red Kite. Has to be. First saw them in mid-Wales several years ago - now all over the place, thank goodness.
Just love them and they stirred up my interest in birds of prey.
Saw black kites in Hong Kong harbour, but they are not nearly so handsome as their ruddy relative!
BUT I do love Golden Eagles and Peregrines, not to mention Ospreys and White Tailed Eagles. Kestrels are great and even the modest sparrow hawk cheers up my garden by keeping the collared doves on their toes!!
LOVE 'EM ALL!
