Red Kites

We pass a little country church on our way to Llanwrtyd Wells, the bog-snorkelling capital of the world.

As along many other parts of our journey, primroses blossom by the side of the track.

Between Llandovery and Llanwrda we spot a pair of red kites in the sky.

Having almost died out in the 30s, thanks to a managed preservation there are now some 500 birds in the area. The Welsh Kite Trust in Llanwrtyd Wells is dedicated to their conservation.
