Tight flock of approximately 15 Red Kites reported by several people, circling low and perching in tree tops, on evening of 24th May, at Tracebridge.

(Apologies for late posting; I was informed only this evening.)

A pleasant sight at Hornblotten, with five birds circling low overhead. Also as I returned home to Evercreech three miles away, two more overhead.
