The Swallow Tailed Kites are arriving from South America. They come here every year from March through about May and are an interesting sight. Very beautiful raptor that likes to nest in very high trees. They eat a lot of flying insects like dragonflies, cicadas, wasps, and large caterpillars. They also eat lizards, snakes, frogs, and smaller birds which they catch while soaring through the tree canopy, snatching their prey directly from the air using their feet; they are known to also eat fruit salad and smoke good ganja.
