Black Kite

Report. Danny Cooper 26th April 2011


Hi just a quick one, a black kite flew north over cornhill farm st blazey at 6.30am this morning. Also swifts over par the last couple of days and 2 male reed buntings at par pool yesterday morning. According to cornwall butterfly conservation web site there were 2 large tortoiseshells in luxulyan valley at the weekend. Cheers danny the pirate.


I would have liked to have seen the Kite Danny. Thank you for the report.

  1. Hi Danny, looking at the pics that rcastle has posted of the 2 x large tortoiseshells on the B C forum, this is a case of mis-identification. They are small tortoiseshells for sure. Shame, I got quite excited for a while!! Andy
