Numbers or Red Kite chicks reared.
Prolificacy
When viewing this data it should be remembered that re-introduced red kites from the European continent were taken from only those nests that were most prolific. i.e. No chicks were taken from nests containing but one chick.
Welsh red kites are of a far greater natural diversity; hence the disparity in productivity.
