Description
The Black Kite is considered to be the most succesful raptor in the world by its numbers and frequents considerable areas of the world from Australia to Europe and Africa.. Darker in colour than its Cousin the Red Kite, with a slightly less forked tail giving it great aerial skills often able to catch such things as insects on the wing and able to tranfer its meal from claw to beak on the fly!

Great shot, where is it taken? I was lucky enough to spot a red kite last week in Peterborough UK, alas did not have my snapper with me.
very nice, interesting info...
Great Shot!!! Gratulation Kaijra
Ooooh, I know a few places in South Belgium where a black kite couple is living for the summer.... capturing (with my camera) one of them is becoming my personal challenge for the coming months ! Excellentissime shot, Danny !
Yes Dan the "Milan noir" can be easily seen in south of France, arround ponds and lakes. Excellent shot !
Gorgeous pict! Taken at the rice moment!
You have really captured the brilliant lines of power on this bird. The rounded surfaces are marvelous. So handsome the bird - so wonderful the photo!
Again I am in awe. Stunning focus and detail. I would've cropped the dark line off the top of the shot and then it would be a perfect compo.
I'm with Vera.... in awe completely! Excellent details. Brilliant. xx

I flick back and forth in the bird book just to separate the vultures from the ospreys. This is quite a capture of motion. He's got some speed and focus.
