Birds of prey are terrorising Henley-on-Thames by attacking people and stealing their food. A two-year-old boy was left with blood pouring from his hand when a huge bird - thought to be a red kite - with 5ft wide wings swooped down to grab his biscuit. In another attack in the town, a woman was forced to flee indoors when a red kite, with needle-sharp talons, tried to snatch smoked mackerel from her salad. The attacks in the Oxfordshire town have led to experts pleading with people not to 'tame' the kites - which resemble eagles - by feeding them scraps in back gardens.
