Paul sent me an email yesterday saying he had
been seeing Black Kites singly or a pair consistently in the last 10 days or
so, but on 28 April he got a few distance shots of four birds together. This is
a very high count for this species in the Eastern Province where birds are
generally only seen singly, although I have seen 15 together once only. As
normal these birds show signs of being Black-eared Kites but this is yet to be
proved conclusively. I thank Paul for sending me the photos and allowing me to
use them on my website.
