Bumper package!

Well at least in light of recent months.. today we received data through on 6 of the tags specifically those tags on the backs of red kites Sky, Ruby, Swooper Trooper, Red Arrow, Phoenix and one kite who has yet to be assigned to a school.  From this bunch we got positional data from Sky and Swooper Trooper only.  Between the 13th and 16th January, Sky was hanging around Munlochy and Kilmuir areas with Swooper Trooper operating in much the same airspace between the 15th and 17th January.  Again, although we're not able to place the rest of the kites very well at the moment it is great to see that the satellite tags seem to be picking up from their hibernation a bit more of late!
