Hello Jim,
a very beautiful capture of the White-tailed Kite, interesting pictures in WS showing perfectly the ID; good sharpness and splendid natural colours, i like this composition with the birds of prey in diagonal pose.

Hello Jim,
A fine capture of a pair of this Elanus species of Kite. There are several closely related species in this genus and all are grey, white and black and have red eyes. The sharpness, lighting and composition on the bare branches against a blue sky are great.
Thanks and all the best,
Ivan

Love that you got two birds in this shot. I think you should get extra points for that.
Great job on the sky background. As we discussed, those are difficult.

Hi Jim. These two kites balances each other very well in the frame. Finely registered image with excellent exposure of the details against the cloudless sky. Well done and thanks for sharing. Regards.
