Red Kite..............

I'd seen this guy coming from quite a distance, no circling just a steady approach.
He hadn't been particularly high, so he may not have been looking for food.
I'd been sat in some bushes for around an hour waiting for an oppertunist shot of any passing wildlife.
Well, they say patience is a virtue, on this occasion patience got me a decent shot of a rather elusive bird, especially at this height.
