What to expect – Argaty Red Kites
http://argatyredkites.co.uk/what-to-expect
How to find us. The whole aim of the project is to have a self-sustaining population of Red Kites back in the wild, so the feeding here is minimal. We staff the hide only to coincide with feeding time, but the hide, visitor centre and toilets are open all day. There is an all-abilities path to the hide (500m), toilets (including disabled facilities), and visitor centre with hot drinks available (but no café) and picnic tables next to the bumblebee garden.

Photography corner – Argaty Red Kites
http://argatyredkites.co.uk/photography-corner
How to find us. Most of the photographs of the kites on this website were taken from the hide with a 300mm lens plus 1.4TC – all hand-held. A tripod isn’t very useful to bring as the seats in the hide get in the way, but a bean bag or small support can be very helpful. Our prime concern is always to avoid disturbance to the birds so we do ask photographers to be sensitive to this and to stay inside the hide. Other phototography opportunities at Argaty. Photography workshops with Dean Bricknell. For more ...
