Fairly sure that I tweeted a kite again this afternoon, flying north a little to the east of the house. With a distinctive, slow but steady beat of the wings, as seen from behind, suggested in the sketch left. The brown bit at the bottom being the tail, too far away for the unaided eye to make out its shape.
I think the correspondent noticed at reference 1 said something about this when I last tweeted a kite - but I didn't really know what he was on about at the time and was reduced to making polite noises.
While a little to the west of the house we had the police helicopter, perhaps keeping an eye on someone reported to be up close and personal with a very large cigarette in Southfield Park. Whatever it was, it was still at it about an hour later.
All this in the course of my afternoon brick walk, a walk which took the total since records began to 536 bricks, or 71,288 yards.
