Black-shouldered Kite (Elanus leucurus) Kiting

Black-shouldered Kite (Elanus leucurus) Kiting

Juveniles have a reddish patch on the breast. Sibley says this buffy wash on the breast fades within weeks, and calls this a "White-tailed Kite". I follow the usage of the Jasper Ridge bird card. See also the bird photography of Peter LaTourrette: <http://www.birdphotography.com/species/wtki.html>;
