Swallow Tailed Kite For the few days that they stayed around, they were busy nest building, I suspect one of many nests they started but never finished, A few days later they were gone, not a trace of them !!, There are a few places around Miami they like, specially places with tall Swiss pines around!! He/She will come swoop down between the branches and come out the other end with moss on her talons, this was done without stopping and on the wing, then, they will circle once or twice and then deposit the nesting material on the nest, the bird sitting on the nest proceeded to arrange the material in place!! D1x, Raw format, Lens=400mm afs-f/2.8, Aperture priority, Centered weighted metering, 1/6400sec-f/2.8, EV=0, ISO 200, Auto WB, No flash!! Any and all comments welcome!! Congrats!!
