RED KITE SIGHTINGS
Close encounter
by Barbara Chapman on 07/14/15Mid-afternoon on Sunday 12th June, two kites ( one chasing the other) flew low over my house and garden from the direction of Hobbs Hill Wood School's fields opposite. (Leverstock Green bordering on Bennetts End) I was working at my lap-top in the lounge and could see them clearly through the window. This is not unusual, but on this occasion they were lower than is usually the case, and I could clearly see the colours and markings on their feathers in the few seconds I could see them through the window.
