#whiteTailedKite
再々度オジロトビ
昨朝雨が降る前、家の近くで
一月の晴れの日々が嘘のように雨季はまだまだ続く

Once again, white-tailed kite
We saw this handsome bird near our house yesterday right before the rain began.
Sunny January days now feel like distant dreams, and the rainy season still continues.

再びオジロトビ
で、今回はご夫婦
左がお婿さんで右がお嫁さん
繁殖期は一緒にいるけれど生涯を共にすることは稀なのですって

White-tailed kite again.
And this time, a pair - male on the left and a female on the right.
They stay together during breeding season, but they rarely mate for life.

Forgive the crappy photo but I got a bird lifer last week and it was super-exciting. #whitetailedkite #ballonafreshwatermarsh #birdnerd #birdlifer #elanusleucurus 10.15.25

I like these pictures I took of the #WhiteTailedKite because it looks like he is wearing cowboy pants.

I am always happy to see a #WhiteTailedKite.

Male kites would offer food in mid-air during courtship. This is on my bucket list to capture.

He's/she's off to murder some rodents. Take all you want, buddy.

騒がしく泣いているカラス
顔を向けている方をみるとオジロトビがいる
雑食の鳥が猛禽類を襲撃
その後2羽ともどこかへ飛んで行った

A crow caws in a loud voice
My eyes follow the direction she faces
There, a white-tailed kite
The omnivore attacks the raptor
Then, two flew away somewhere

White-Tailed Kite hunting over coastal scrub and oaks just after sunset. There are usually several out there. This one seems extra fluttery. Is that a seasonal behavior?

I was just packing up after visiting some museums and a hiking trail, but apparently the day was not over yet!
