5 Aug - Probably the quietest time of year for birding, through high summer, but 2 Red Kites seen at Aston Rowant NNR in the Chilterns while on a butterfly trip. Record shot taken with 200mm lens. The bird is moulting, with a ragged tail.
Only 2 Swifts over the house this evening - juveniles? their flight seemed a little clumsy. They will be leaving any day now. A sign of autumn along with the darker evenings.
