Report on outing to Argaty Red Kites Centre

Posted bykirmenPosted inWildlife sightingsTags:, , , ,

On the latest PNHS outing, eleven people ventured over to the Red Kite Centre at Doune, on Sunday 16th April, and enjoyed observing red squirrels and 16 species of birds, including the star attraction, the Red Kites. Kirsten Ferguson has written up a fabulous report with some of her photographs giving a flavour of what turned out to be a very informative and absorbing afternoon with their hosts, Niall and Lynn Bowser, owners of the Centre.
