This job certainly keeps you on your toes! The lovely sunny weather that Aberdeenshire has been enjoying recently, is also going down well with the kites. In the last couple of weeks kites have been turing up all over the place locally, from Finzean in the south to Ellon in the north and everywhere inbetween. Everyday I see birds in new and unexpected places! Most exciting of all for me, was one from my garden in one of Aberdeen's suburbs!
Another side of this job that continually amazes me is the great names that local school children keep coming up with for our kites! The last few weeks have seen the christenings of Ketchup of Cromar, Blazer, Swoopy and many more! If your school is still to name a kite we'll publish a list of new names shortly so you can get some ideas and we don't get any duplicates!
