'hunting lesson'
I have been spending a great amount of time exploring and learning about my new favorite place 7 miles from where I live...learning what a remarkable birding place this is. I didn't go looking for the Kites this day but as I was watching the shorebirds I heard a screeching near by and there they were. This appeared to be a 'hunting lesson' day as the young kites perched on a nearby juniper tree and occasionally would hover over the field. When this one landed the parent landed next to it and I believe was encouraging it to go find it's next meal!
