Brecon Beacon Red Kites & Usk Reservoir

The trip finally arrived and despite having all kinds of weather thrown at us, the Red Kites really did deliver the goods today. This was my first time visiting an official feeding station and I wasn't at all disappointed with the views. I honestly didn't want to leave... That said, myself and Paul Joy did spend a good few hours exploring the surrounding environment and we must have recorded nearly 40 species of bird. Willow tit, Spotted Flycatcher, Pied Flycatcher, Redstart, Snipe and Garden Warbler to name just a few.
