A dad has told how he was enjoying a pub lunch with his family when a hungry bird dived down and swiped a steak off their table.
Jez Elkins, 54, from Didcot, was with his son and three-year-old granddaughter at the Station Garden when the red kite swooped down with a noise like a "brick hitting the table" as it made off with the freshly cooked steak.
He said that he had his head down as he was looking at a colouring pad belonging to his granddaughter when the bird of prey flew "within 10 inches" of his son Callum's face, reported OxfordshireLive.
