Swallow-tailed Kite




Swallow-tailed Kite

 The swallow-tailed kite is a beautiful bird and an amazing flyer!  I have only seen them during my visits to Florida and they aren't very common there.  I have watched them as they fly in huge circles looking for prey.  I have even photographed them eating their prey as they fly overhead.  

 This particular bird flew directly overhead and looked directly at me as I took its photo.  I think it heard the sound of the camera focusing and shooting!
