Luuuucky!! Anyone who has America's most graceful flier over his yard is livin' right. Thanks for investing in a big rig so you can share images of your wonderful birds too. (That's why you got it right?) I see good things ahead!

Wow. That's breathtaking.

Julie and Miz S,
There were 6 Swallowtails circling very high overhead and one Miss Kite just hanging out with his cousins.
They have the most distinctive whistles, these Kites.

Luck or not, that's one great shot. Now do I have to look up Kite Nebula?

I thought that was a frigate bird, Mr. R. Powers?

Hi FC,

Long time! Was on a river cruise last week and the Captain suddenly got real excited. "A kite, A kite! We rarely see them. My favorite bird!" Of course I thought of you immediately.

Love my camera...took some really cool shots of the super moon the other day.

Congrats on the wedding. Wishing them a happy life!

Hey La Diva! Swallowtail kite, but I see the similarity!
