ICBW but I think you need a licence to feed kites and such. I know
that a feeding station in Mid-Wales has a licence and they can only
put out meat fit for human consumption. Also there are rules about
feeding offal and meat not for human consumption to working dogs
meaning that birds aren't supposed to be able to get at it.

How utterly bureaucratic and ridiculous! Kites are scavengers, and
don't have trouble with carrion. Hawks, on the other hand, may well
need fresh meat.

We had a red kite flying around here this afternoon for almost half an
hour, it has permission to take every rabbit it can find here, but I'm
not going to go out and catch them for it, but if I do get any it is
more than welcome to the innards.

I believe Oriel Jones's slaughterhouse in Llanybydder used to put stuff
out for the kites, but they were stopped when the authorities found out.
Madness! --That's what kites are /for/, for heaven's sake!
