Some great shots! Looks like the Kites were a bit far away? Story of my life with BOP!

Loving the first chaff and the goldie especially - very very good!

Thanks. No, the Kites were very close when feeding. I used both my 5dmkII and 70-200 with teleconverter on some shots and on others I used my 50d and 400mm.

I'm hoping to go to another Red kite resort soon amazing birds

They are very attractive! We do get them in Ireland, but only really around Wicklow - they fly over here occasionally, but certainly, there's nowhere in Ireland I could go to photo them it's a shame! Ireland likes to try and hone your field skills as there are pretty much zero honeypot sites! This is a bad thing - because there's not a lot to practice on that isn't about 100 miles away!
