RSPB N.E.Volunteers see Red Kites at Barlow
:news:
We had about 100 RSPB Volunteers at the Marriott Hotel, Metro Centre, today for a Conference and also guided walks to see the kites.
We had two coaches to Barlow, then the groups took different routes, eventually meeting back at the Sherburn Towers Bus Stop or Greenside (?).
Happily it was a fine morning and the kites had decided to get up and fly, so we had some good sightings. We also saw kestrel, buzzards, sparrowhawk and a weasel!
Several of us from Birdforum were there......good to meet up!!
We were also very happy to meet folk from Yorkshire, some of whom have knowledge of the Harewood House Red Kite Project. Other people were from the Bempton Reserve and Cumbria.All in all, an excellent day:clap: :clap: :clap:
