This afternoon, over 1-75, East of Snake Rd. I'd say mile 45 give or take.
Exciting!!!

In that area north of I-75, on the way to Dinner Island Preserve, last year there were a lot of them nesting out there. Maybe the same sets returning.

They showed up at Gatorland yesterday (2/26) late afternoon as well. Saw three flying around our south swamp this morning!

An evil friend down there (Florida) sent me an image >2 weeks ago of a flock of swallow-tailed kites. About 75 in the image and who knows how many surrounding it. And I get to shovel snow, there is no justice!
