You can tell I’m retired! Parking at the church should not be a problem tomorrow!

Play it by ear and be courteous of the church-goers. Willie From: geneseebirds-l-boun...@geneseo.edu [mailto:geneseebirds-l-boun...@geneseo.edu] On Behalf Of Bird observations from western New York Sent: Sunday, August 09, 2020 7:54 PM To: NYSBirds; geneseebird...@geneseo.edu; geneseebirds-googlegr...@geneseo.edu Subject: [GeneseeBirds-L] Two Swallow-tailed Kites - Orleans and Monroe Counties There have been two SWALLOW-TAILED KITES for over a week near the Village of Kendall in Orleans County. A local resident notified Braddock Bay Raptor Research, who alerted birders. The birds were best seen today from Rt 272, Monroe-Orleans Countyline Rd. There is a church at the southwest corner of Kendall Creek Rd and Rt 272 that birders used for parking and viewing the bird from the parking lot. The birds were sometimes seen as far as 1.5 miles south of this location from the shoulder of Rt 272. The birds were only seen in flight as far as I am aware but they sometimes came right over us at the church parking lot. The birds will disappear for several minutes at a time but will show up again at variable intervals. Sight lines in the area vary, as did the height of the birds during the day, but they were usually just a little over the treetops. Quite a spectacular bird for New York, much less two of them! Good birding! Willie ------------------ Willie D'Anna Wilson, NY dannapotterATroadrunnerDOTcom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Geneseebirds" group.
