 Red Kites - Manatee

>> I see some of the townies who moved out to the country are now complaining
>> that Kites "hover in an “intimidating” way over homes and gardens"

Ignorance Shirley. Somebody said to me they were bothered by them, I assumed they had been buzzed or something like that but they were just referring to the circling. That someone is intimidated doesn't mean they are intimidating. They live aloft, scanning for grub. I said at worst they are waiting for you to die. Don't die and you will be OK.

It's not beyond credible that they might acquire seagull tendencies if their numbers increase and people keep feeding them but I'd be surprised. They don't seem to be at all aggressive and they are certainly not as quick and agile as the fish-and-chip gull. They are low energy fliers, gliders, not violent hyenas of the air.
