Birders,
I was present for a bit over an hour yesterday (Wed) to look for the kite. It
was seen around 2:00pm, about an hour before I got there. I didn't post my not
seeing it because of such a short duration of trying. Several others were in
the area and stayed longer. Myself and others would appreciate updates whether
it was seen or not, how long you were there, when those times were, etc. This
helps show any patterns, or lack there of, in sightings.
I feel like an Accidental-listed species is deserving of such regular updates
for the good of the birding community as a whole - not just for Iowa birders,
but to those who might travel from out of state as well.
Muchly appreciated today and in the future of this kite and beyond.
Bird on...
