That's interesting because it was a tad earlier than last spring that I
watched the Black-shouldered Kites at Rocky Knoll. Here's the entries from
my birders diary:
May 4 2005 Rocky Knoll, Lake Ginn Pen. Pair Black-shouldered Kites. One
carrying 5-7 stalks of dry grass. May 31 2005 Rocky Knoll, Lake Ginn Pen.
Pair Black-shouldered Kites. Copulation/attempted copulation, also aerial
prey exchange. June 1 2005 Rocky Knoll, Lake Ginn Pen. Single
Black-shouldered Kite. Hovering and soaring.
I haven't seen any Black-shouldered Kites in the ACT since. And yes,
Barbara Allan, I have these obs down on COG Incidental Reports and need to
complete several more before dropping them by.
