In this new edition of The Readers’ Challenge of La Vanguardia I propose that you help me count all the specimens of red kite and black kite that appear in these three photographs that I have taken in the surroundings of Altet, in the Urgell region.
These birds of prey from the eagle family are easily differentiated from one another by the V-shaped forked tail and the wide white spots under the wings of the red kite.
In any case, in today’s visual challenge I am not going to ask you to distinguish one kite from the other, but rather to look carefully at the images and guess the total number of specimens that appear in each of them.
Have you managed to see many kites in the three photographs? Were there more than you thought or less? Obviously, the same number of birds do not appear in one photo as in another.
In any case, the moment of truth has arrived. I am going to show you the three images again, but this time I have marked the position of each kite, so you can now know if you have seen them all or not. Thanks for playing!
