A biologist friend reports seeing earlier today: "I was driving through central Boulder today and saw two birds that were very falcon-ish with light bodies and dark tails (from underneath) I couldn't really see their wings- but most of their body except their tails looked like a light grey-brown."
This description seems good for Mississippi Kites. Location Valmont and Folsom flying east with grackle escorts. My late friend Wes Sears and I last saw one 21 years ago at Sawhill Ponds. There is a nice article by Jack Conner in this spring's Living Bird on the range expansion of this species. --Scott Scott E.
