The farmer was cutting hay, and we counted *seven* Red Kites following the tractors.

At one point, all whirling over the same field together!

I guess it's the raptor equivalent of a salmon run. A hay cut drives out mice and rodents. So they learnt to follow the tractors 🦅🚜

Neues von den Rotmilanen: Sie brüten jetzt. 🥰
Der Platz ist klug gewählt, so dass es wohl die letzten Fotos für eine Weile sind. Das Nest ist kaum noch erkennbar.

I was going to take a break from posting today but as it's #wildlifewednesday I couldn't resist.

Here's an image taken on my old camera in 2023 of a Red Kite in flight. In England there have been several conservation successes with these birds over the last 20-30 years. In certain places they almost feel as common as garden birds!

CARMARTHEN: Raptor attraction that drew 4,000 visitors in its first winter launches new all-weather facilities for spring

West Wales’s newest wildlife attraction has launched a range of new all-weather facilities as it heads into its first full spring season at its Carmarthenshire home.

The British Bird of Prey Centre, which opened at its new independent site in Idole, near Carmarthen, in October 2025, has attracted more than 4,000 visitors since opening — with school trips, sold-out winter owl evenings and private flying experiences already under its belt.

The centre, previously based at the National Botanic Garden of Wales, is the UK’s only visitor attraction dedicated entirely to native British birds of prey.

Visitors can see some of Britain’s most iconic raptors up close, including golden eagles, red kites, peregrine falcons, kestrels, owls and buzzards. Red kites have a particular resonance in Carmarthenshire — the county is home to some of Wales’s most celebrated birds of the species, including the oldest ringed red kite recorded surviving in the wild, which was found injured in the area.

The attraction’s biggest new addition for spring is an interactive indoor activity space, where visitors can test their reflexes in a game simulating catching prey, look through binoculars that replicate an owl’s vision, and build their own bird.

The centre says it will expand the space over the coming months to include night vision goggles and a virtual reality experience simulating what it feels like to hold birds ranging from little owls to a peregrine falcon.

The centre has also extended its spring flying show programme, with daily shows in its indoor arena giving visitors close encounters with the birds whatever the weather — a significant draw for families during school holiday periods. The site also has an on-site café, outdoor adventure play area, and dedicated spaces for schools, community groups and corporate events.

A new car park, funded through the Welsh Government’s Weatherproofing grant, has also been added to cope with anticipated higher footfall through the spring and summer.

Emma Hill, Director of the British Bird of Prey Centre, said the response to the move had exceeded expectations. “Welcoming over 4,000 visitors in just a few months has given us real confidence that we made the right decision,” she said.

“We’ve built this site around freedom, welfare and immersive experiences — and the public response shows people genuinely value that difference. This spring feels like the start of something much bigger.”

Since opening, the centre has also welcomed more than 500 school children and hosted over 300 private flying experience guests alongside its public programme.

The move to Idole is part of the centre’s wider ambitions for the site. Future plans include a Wild Raptor Rehabilitation Centre, as well as camping and glamping options to support eco-tourism in west Wales.

The centre is currently ranked number one on TripAdvisor for things to do in the Carmarthen area and is open now for its first full season. Further details are available at the centre’s website.

Bei den Rotmilanen werden wieder strenge Rituale praktiziert. Sie sitzen mit maximalem Abstand auf demselben Ast. Einer lockt den anderen mit Futter in seine Nähe. Das Geschenk wird mit Verbeugung präsentiert und unter Aufsicht verspeist.

Die Rotmilane waren heute ganz aufgeregt. Anscheinend waren Eindringlinge im Revier. Beide stiegen auf unten sorgten für Ordnung in ihrem Luftraum.

Woher kommt die Vorstellung von Wesen mit Hakennase die auf Reisigbesen fliegen? Nun, manchmal rutscht dem Rotmilan ein Zweig aus dem Schnabel.
