SWALLOW-TAILED KITES

The effortless flight of these American Swallow-tailed Kites is impressive as they engage in their aerial ballet.

LEFT-CLICK IMAGES TO ENLARGE



These agile Raptors are a picture of sheer grace and beauty as they float in the air with outstretched wings.



The buoyancy of this striking bird comes from weighing  approximately 15 ounces with a wingspan of about 51 inches



This remarkable Raptor is showcased by turning to its side and flaring its scissor-like tail. That is the BEST!  :)



Yeah, yeah, yeah they have itches that must be scratched as well.



Hopefully these extraordinary Raptors will have a successful year breeding and add their offspring to the existing population.

These are my best photos thus far of these magnificent birds. I hope you enjoyed seeing the pictures and I hope you see some if you have not.
