It surely can't be long before they are breeding in Derbyshire, if indeed they are not already doing so, or even locally for that matter. This bird looks like an adult with an inner primaries on each wing lost to moult.

Red Kite over Harewood Moor
My second Red Kite of the week, or possibly the same bird as this one seen briefly over Whitesprings plantation on Tuesday. This bird drifted over Harewood Moor towards Chesterfield this afternoon.
