Amazing shot. Very nice colors. The bottom wing has a green/blue color and upper wing is white due direct sunlight washing it out making interesting shot.

Yes, right first time David, well worth the trip from where I was staying on the Wirral. We stopped for a picnic lunch in Llangollen and enjoyed the scenic drive to Rhayader. Not the easiest of shoots with so many Kites in the sky.

Gigrin Farm!  Certainly a Red Kite spectacular experience.  :) 

Well done to get a single bird and nicely captured Rob.
