🔊 Sound on! 🦅 Red kites are an easily recognisable bird of prey, with a rusty reddish-brown body, deeply forked tail and distinctive call. 🔍 Their head is pale grey and patterned with dark streaks, and they have a yellow beak with a dark hook and pale, striking eyes. 🌳 Red kites nest in broadleaved woodland. They can be seen all year round soaring on warm, sunny days above wooded valleys, pasture and countryside, as well as in suburban areas and towns. 📈 The red kite was once a common bird
