PHOTOGRAPH RED KITES

KEY INFORMATION

This workshop will take place in Oxfordshire. The Chilterns is one of the best places in the country to see and photograph Red Kites thanks to a successful reintroduction of the birds of prey in the early 1990’s.

By the end of the 19th century, Red Kites had been driven to extinction by persecution and only a small population of the birds survived in Wales.

Kites started breeding in the Chilterns in 1992 and now it is thought there could be as many as 1,500 breeding pairs in the area.

This session will last around 4-5 hours, meeting will be either just after sunrise or at lunchtime, to ensure the best possible lighting conditions.

The workshop is available to all levels of photographer.

Price: £140 per person or £250 for 2 people booking together.

Restricted to 3 people maximum.
