The kites are back! Not everywhere, but in 3 of the sites where we used to see them. We saw a total of 5 kites today, three of them flying about together in one area. The only place I got a photo, of one kite, the landowner said there were usually two kites. Maybe they'll stick around and nest! It was a long look to this kite so my photos are blurry. (that's my excuse.)
More excitement came from a tip from a friend: an eagle nest we did not know about on our route. An eagle was stationed by the nest today.
Farther along on our route in the Sheridan area, there is a small dug "fire" pond. Today a Black Phoebe was hanging out nearby, preening.
It was a beautiful day for a drive but we were still under the weather from the colds we are recovering from. The kites and eagle nest and phoebe were great spirit lifters.
