Tim Davis, the (voluntary) bird recorder for Lundy Island www.birdsoflundy.org.uk in the Bristol Channel, off the North Devon or South Wales coast depending on where you’re looking from, emailed me with the Red Kite pictured on the left.

The email was duly sent to Robert Straughan
Red Kite Project Officer of RSPB Northern Ireland as the tag colour looked similar to those used there but turned out to be one of the kites that left Gigrin rehabilitation aviaries as a chick and entered the Republic of Ireland red kite reintroduction programme 3 years ago!
