When dead, yes. In the Home Counties, Red Kites are enjoying a huge increase in numbers - but although they DO take live prey, they are not prolific takers and then little more than a rat or baby rabbit. However, they much prefer that which is already dead and if I should have the misfortune to wipe out a bird, a rabbit or a badger on my travels, then I know that there will be a Red Kite to offer up a prayer of thanks for my generosity!
