[nysbirds-l] Miss kites

It's been two weeks of irregular visits to sterling forest since I've seen either of the Mississippi kites. Has anyone seen them? If not, any theories about what happened ? Is the female finally in the nest they seemed to be building, and the male out of sight? Or did they just up and leave?

Spent my lunch hour at sterling forest. Both kites present in the general vicinity. At one point the male caught a dragonfly and shared it with the female, which i was able to photograph. Otherwise they spent most of the time perched and preening. If you're on Facebook, check out my Photo page
