 The observer
has just rung me and said that he saw the birds well last night, just hovering
over his house, and that there was a lot of black under the wings but no
noticeable "S" or "Z" markings. If someone in the Beaudesert area could have a
look it might be well to confirm the birds identity.

  I have just
  had a report of a pair of Letter-winged Kites which have been hunting over the
  fields at 383 Cryma Road,  a km west of Beaudesert. The birds are 
  reported to hunt only at dawn and dusk which sounds right. 
    
  Since there
  is a mouse plague there them may stay around for a while. 
    
  I was going
  to go down today but there, has been have just had 50 mm of rain and the place
  is waterlogged.
