I love birdwatching.
Nothing wrong with being a twitcher

Hi

We're lucky enough to entice the Red Kites to feed infront of the lounge window. Don't do it very often, the price of chicken wings being what they are!

Somebody near here feeds them. Often there are in excess of thirty wheeling about. One of the pair nesting in our pine is tagged.
Here's a photo taken by the trail camera at the apiary

No - it's just on the point of shedding its last antler ready for the mating season (they only use them in winter)

He surely can't be worse than the current spring watch presenters

Yes, Welsh Kites have antlers!
