Tuesday, May 25th - A late afternoon report to CT-Birds from Ryan McLean notes a Swallow-tailed Kite "headed west” from the Greenwich (Connecticut) Audubon center - which is just barely east & south of parts of Westchester County, N.Y. - this kite could potentially show up along the shore of Long Island Sound, along the Hudson River valley, or take any turn & end up practically any place (including, of course, reversing or zig-zagging back into some part of Connecticut; another one of the possible areas to check might be along the Bronx River and vicinity…)
Note that the “poss.” used in the header (subject line) does *not* refer to the identification of the kite, rather to it’s possible destination or its line[s] of movement. The identification is not in question. good luck, Tom Fiore manhattan -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
