Square-Tailed Kite
Here is two photos of a Square-Tailed Kite (Lophoictina isura).
These have a large wing span up to 1.3 metres,travel by gliding,covering vast distances looking for baby birds and chicks in nest for their 'main menu item''
That are'nt all that common,the books say a bit on the rare side.These are one of my most favourite raptors
I think Steven Mudge captured a few images of these last year,at the foot hills
of Mt Coot-tha,Brisbane,which i thought was quite good to see,considering that they are'nt all that common.
I like the first photo best,i hope some of you find these of interest.
Cheers
