Just after mid-day a stunning Red Kite drifted over the garden mobbed by Carrion Crow which soon gave up and the bird continued south west. Met up with Bob at 12:30pm for a quick look at the pond but it was pretty quiet with only one Common Tern, Ringed Plover, Common Sandpiper, 10 Greylag, and a few Buzzards to report.
