Regarding the tagged Scottish Kite I saw at Nant-yr-Arian today I received information from Tony Cross of the Welsh Kite Trust that this bird has been seen about quite a bit recently. It was ringed near Contin, Ross-shire North Scotland on the 12th June 2008 in a brood of two. It first appeared at Nant-yr-Arian on the 13th January where it was photographed by Tony Walker. Great wanderers these Scottish birds!
My thanks to Tony Cross of the W.K.T. for this information.
