A couple of spectacular birds of prey

A couple of evenings ago, on the Skelton road out of Langthorpe, heard the unmistakable sound of Swallow's alarm call, and looked up to see a superb adult Hobby dashing across the sun-bathed field followed closely by half a dozen Swallows.  Then today on the Knaresborough road out of Minskip, saw a Red Kite languidly flying north over the cereal fields, with the forked tail flashing rusty red as it twisted in the sunlight.   Two cracking raptors.
