Whist this section may be a small one it contains a little of the history of a big hearted bird recognised in no small way as my country's national one - The Red Kite. Its fight back from almost extinction began in the upper reaches of the beautiful vale of the river Twyi in west Wales.

I have also included some of those birds, who's antics around a feeder station enthrall us on those cold and bitter winter mornings whilst we watch them from the warmth of our homes.

The photographs in this section are just some of those from a very large portfolio of birds by Mr Brian Taylor, an ex military employee who on becoming retired has become an amateur photographer. Thank you Brian for allowing me to include them in my website.
