Large bird spotted in Northants. ID needed (1 Viewer)

[Bexinthecity]

So we keep getting a large bird that affects the small cluster of starlings we have hanging about our large tree in our back yard (the noise is horrendous when they are all screeching). Anyway at first it appeared to be a heron but now we have noticed another bird which I was able to photograph (albeit it was so far away that the pictures are a little grainy and not that clear) it and hoping for some identification as I have seen plenty of Hawks in my area (in a country village) but never one this big and with the White/cream head in the pictures.

Your bird is a Red Kite - nice to have so locally.

Great stuff guys since moving to this village a year ago I see all sorts of wonderful wild life (especially birds!)

Thanks for the help!
