The Kites are Coming!

Actually, as I write (May 7, 2019 10:15 a.m.) , the Mississippi Kites are returning to Weatherford, Oklahoma.  There were 8 circling high as I was walking home from the dentist-- not sure if they are staying or traveling on north.

This is the latest they have arrived in the 9 years I have been watching.  I saw one while hiking in the Wichita Mountains (south of here) on Saturday, and may have seen one, alone, yesterday morning, but the flock is soaring in now.
