There’s been a Red Kite here for the past week or two but today there are 6 in a group over Bye Hill, Winsford, scanning the recently cut bracken and enjoying the thermals

Two Red Kites circling above fields on the southern boundary of Crewkerne at 11.10am this morning.
The birds gaining height and drifting northwest.
Both birds had an inner primary missing on each wing.
