If anyone does find a nest, please report it to the relevant Red Kite Project in your area, and keep the news to yourself.

Totally agree Helen.

It is ok to let people know about release sites as they are public knowledge. However nest sites are a different matter and as Helen has stated please report them only to the relevant bodies. If you are not sure who to let know contact the RSPB I'm sure they will help you.
