PeterKes · 1282 days ago I waited a few days, following the kites, who were present in Savuti by the hundreds. I monitored every one aI could, until I saw this one throwing an eye on a bunch of doves. There was a chase of about 5 seconds and I managed to get 15 conseq. frames depicting the chase from beginning to end, eventually with the kill and the fly-off. The dove managed to dodge the kite first by zigzagging, but halfway the chase it decided to go in a straight line to the forrest. This was a mistake, as the kite is able to close in with a few flaps of its massive wings and very agile manouvring skills. Tx for your comments.
