Red kites particularly welcome.
Oh and I would dearly love to see a pic of a sea eagle.
As always, thank you so much.

I have some tiny blurry pics of bald eagles from a few years back, before I had a DSLR with lovely zoom lenses.. you don't want to see them.
However I know of a place and time where you can go and see tons of them reliably, so I might try again this year

Cheers - though looking back at my old pics I think a lot of them are a bit underexposed.
Thanks everyone, some terrific pics especially GrahamS.
Matt - yes, I took my kids there, ooh must be nearly 20 years ago, when it was pretty basic. Remember seeing a condor - awesome!

I assumed you were going for a sort of grungy moody feel to fit with the sky tones and raptor nature. Works for me anyway.
