This Spanish Red Kite flying over my garden was chasing the bird in the picture below

Great motion-shot. I hope it didn't catch the other poor bird though.

Hi Dwyliss, thanks for your comments, The Red Kite did turn round. Usually it's the Spanish Red Kites that get mobbed by the crows. In UK the Kites seem to be scavengers and have been one of the major re- introduction success stories of the UK. They Kite patrol my estate most days now with the occasional Buzzard riding the thermals in the nearby hill tops.
