Thanks Elizabeth
There is as yet no sign of any breeding activity among the large group of
BSK's that are ever present here at the moment. I suspect that for the time
being at least the pleasure of gorging themselves on bountiful mice has
taken their minds off other things.
I will nonetheless be watching for any change.
Cheers
John

Subject: Black Shouldered Kites
Some of those black shouldered kites should have nests. Have you tried to
find a nest? It is fun to watch birds on a nest, going to and fro, firstly
perhaps, Dad feeding Mum, then feeding the chicks. I have never found a
bshk's nest but plan to start looking at Callum Brae where there is a pair
of the birds. I have read that their nests are high in trees, so may not be
easy to see. Generally the bird leads you to a nest
