I've just seen 85 Black Kites flying due south over our Sai Kung house. Would these be migrating or winter visitors arriving? Author: lpaul Time: 12/11/2013 08:47
What time of day? Author: handrew Time: 12/11/2013 10:24
Paul, about 5.30pm

Could they be heading to the roost in Sai Kung harbour? It would certainly be an odd time of day for raptors to be migrating. Author: handrew Time: 12/11/2013 12:28
Possibly Paul but I have the same view each day and have not seen these sorts of numbers before. I saw 43 in a kettle recently but it's not a normal sighting. Author: cgeoff Time: 12/11/2013 15:06
I would imagine the unusual appearance is related to the windy conditions we have at the moment.
I too doubt they are on active migration.

P.S. Do you realise you two have exactly the same number of posts? Spooky or what?!?
