Just to make a change from previous posts about cloud watching, while I was at the cricket on Sunday round about 4.30 I spotted 2 red kites circling the ground.
One at least was being mobbed by other birds & then it landed on a chimney on one of the houses that surround the ground at the Kirkstall Lane End.
They are magnificent birds that have been reintroduced to the Harewood Estate and are flourishing despite some attempts to poison or trap them.
According to today's YEP they have also been seen in the centre of Leeds.

Do bird spotters do it in their slippers? |

I thought Trainspotting was a good film. Not as good as some make out though.  |

Depends what cricket. Yorkshire, I think I'd rather watch Tweedy Pie unless it was a 20/20 or 1 Dayer. |

I'd rather watch birds than read the majority of posts on this board, particularly by those who rarely have anything to say about RL matters.

Red Kites are awesome.
I've seen them over Headingley before, but never in the centre of Leeds.
Regularly see 10 -15 when I go biking round Eccup and Harewood.

combined the two last year playing on the quaint pitch in Harewood's grounds last year, as the kites flew overhead, just needed a steam train to chug past too |

Neither do you post anything interesting or sensible either.
You epitomise so much of what's wrong with the world today.
Rather than respect different points of view to your own you choose to ridicule and mock other folk.
A little respect for the valid observations of others wouldn't go amiss.
If something doesn't interest or matter to you why not just ignore it and let those whom it pleases just get on with it? |

Woah there dude. I only called birdwatching boring. I don't think I'm the first to do so. |
