Interesting, I was wondering if that is the first ever record of "a number of" Black Kites in Canberra, where the number was not zero or one. I thought it was. I have only ever encountered that many before. Of course throughout most of their range, they occur in big congregations. Actually Wilson (1999) cites one observation on 7-8-1959, of three of them (also odd in winter). The GBS Report indicates singles only (as in the G = 1.00).
