BW Kite stunner

On Sunday 7th September, I drove dowm to Hickling Broad, arriving at 5.15pm, I ran down to the mound overlooking Brendan's Marsh and a group of people were there including Justin L who very kindly let me look at the stunning Black- winged Kite perched in some bare bushes low down. It was an really striking bird with white head black around the eye. Initially it was perched very low just above reed hide but after some 20 minutes it flew to the top most branch protruding left of the bush and it displaced a Wood Pigeon off its perch, after a further 10 minutes it shoohk its wings and the flew right showing the glorious black shoulders of this species, it perched up further right and then it flew right again before flying back and perching near the same spot. After another 10 minutes it flew leisurely to the right, hovering occasionally and then finally seen flying out of sight.. In the closest dyke, a Mute Swan and a reasonably close Green Sandpiper was seen feeding. TBC
