Thanks! Feel free to drop by and follow my blog (www.MyFloridaBackyard.blogspot.com) where I'm always documenting the wildlife in the neighborhood... I got some good shots of a Red-Shouldered Hawk in my yard the other day!

Ok! I have been trying to take a photo of it for several months and it fly's away! I think they are beautiful birds and I also read they migrate to South America and Asia. I would like to see more photos of them too! Hope you get a good photo of it~

I think I live very close to you, and I know the Swallow Tailed Kites you are referring too. They are gorgeous, but this isn't one of them. If you do get a good picture, please do post... I've been wanting trying to do the same!

Thank You Both! I was hoping it was the Kite bird that comes around every 2 or 3 weeks! I can never get a good photo of it or the bats! Lol
