Red kites are kinds of birds. They are like small or medium-sized eagles. They hunt rats, mice, eat carrion, hunt small birds, hunt earthworms, they hunt shrews, frogs, lizards, young hares, and they hunt fish. You might be thinking, "Kites? Aren't kites those kinds of wind toys?" Well, that is only one meaning of kite. Red kite also means a kind of rapter. They have a white head, a dark reddish-brownish back with a little touch of white on the ee, and a black-feathered underside. The adult has a deeply forked tail. That's what I know about the red kite!
