A large black rollup bag with red zippers and red padding on a work table.

I've got a new #kite bag! The zippers on my last bag started failing after ~8 years, so it was time for something new. Making a bag is quite the project, so I did a bit of a write up about it on my build log:

The little kid in the house behind us is flying a kite with coaching from his mom. Watching them reminds me of how much I love kites. I haven’t flown one since we lived in Hutchinson, Kansas — and that was 20 years ago. #kites

Są tu jacyś fizycy, specjaliści od aerodynamiki, a najlepiej po prostu mający doświadczenie z latawcami?

Testowaliśmy dziś latawiec i lata, ale kołysze się na boki i coś łatwo spada. Przyczyny spadania upatruję w ciężkim ogonie, ale chybotanie nie wiem. Myślałem, że może proporcje linki […]

A family of three in the bottom left corner fly 2 kites that can be seen above the clouds in the upper left. They are standing in a wide open grassy field that slopes upwards to a peak on which many people can be seen in the distance.

During our visit to San Juan we came across this lovely spot with a historical old fort and wide open green field. Many folks were out flying kites on this beautiful day. 🪁🪁

Red kites (Milvus miles) are mainly carrion eaters (opportunistically small live mammals) but despite that were subject to severe persecution in the UK. Projects for protection from 1995 to 2023 (for example) have resulted in a drastic increase in their numbers in the UK. These are one of my favourite birds of prey due to their elegance and graceful flight. They are protected in the UK by Law. Globally they are of Least Concern according to the IUCN Red List (2020) with an increasing population trend. Their preferred habitat is of grassland, forest and shrubland but will also visit human modified landscapes. Their large native range includes the Western Palaearctic. They are threatened by illegal poaching and poisoning.
