Snail Kites in Flight

[EricD]

Few shots from Lake Toho. Snail Kites were active as usual. Found out these Birds are being tracked by University of Florida.
Lots of Males flying around, females must be with the young. Photos taken from boat.



1 Male

2 Female....we call her 4A (bands on leg)

3 Male

4 Male

5 Not sure...thinking young female since I see a little brown coming in.

We have Mississippi and Swallowtail kites that migrate through here every year, but I've never seen a snail kite. Very nice captures. I think 2 and 5 are my favorites. Thanks so much for sharing.
