Some birds of prey build a nest and some species don't bother, but kites go one step further when it comes to adorning there nest's. Most people associate bird thiefing with the magpie but the link below shows how Black and Red Kites also like to adorn there nests with trinkets and ribbons.
Red Kites were re-introduced to most parts of the British Isles after extensive persecution pushed them into a tiny home range within Mid Wales while there smaller cousins the Black Kites are probably the worlds most successful birds of prey.
