Birds Of Prey What are the birds of prey I often see flying above the M40 near the Stokenchurch Gap ?

Question by : What are the birds of prey I often see flying above the M40 near the Stokenchurch Gap ?
Above the gap, on the eastern side, a look above will usually show dozens of birds of prey flying around, with a V shaped tail. Anyone any idea what these are, and why they congregate there ?

Meads.

They are ” Red Kites.”

Some one could be feeding them or there is a good source of food ,they are “scavengers”and only eat “dead” food they “do not” kill, as was once believed.

Lucky you, where I live they are breeding but alas I have only seen 4-6 of them at one time.
