. I spent 3 plus hours at the golf course watching for for STKIs without luck...Others came came and went. This area is loaded with Mississippi Kites and we saw a number of those. Giving up and with other things to do, I left and headed west into the Colorado River Refuge upstream. There I did see a single STKI briefly heading down stream south of the river but it was out of sight when I went back for others.So they are still about. A golfer mentioned to us that he had been seeing them. I left as others were still looking so maybe there will be other updates. I have a Buff-bellied Hummingbird here at the cabin. Turks-caps and varioous salvias are blooming which draws my hummers away from the feeders. ********************************************************************** Brush Freeman 503-551-5150 Cell 120 N.
