If you have any good site links which are relevant to the area, or simply too good to go unmentioned, post them here and I'll include them in the relevant section.

Gigrin Farm Red Kite website:

Quote:
Wild Red Kites are fed at Gigrin Farm
every day of the year. With breathtaking feats of aerial piracy red kites compete with buzzards and ravens for choice pickings.
Feeding takes place at 2pm GMT
= 3pm in summer & 2pm winter (well, no-one tells the kites that the clocks change!)....

The number of kites using the feeding station can vary anything from a few dozen to 400 or more depending on weather and time of year. With the onset of bad weather numbers can increase dramatically, but on blue sky days in spring or summer they may well take their time in coming for their lunch!
