Observation details
We spotted what looked like an immature Swallow-tailed Kite as we were driving south on Hwy 599 (Veterans Memorial Hwy) and had to make a u-turn to get a better look at it. The three of us watched as the kite dawdled in the area, caught a small thermal and soared on. The stark black and white contrast of the bird was most notable. It seemed lanky in flight, with laborious flaps. Deeply forked tail.
