Well Mississippi Kites love 'em for sure. Mark Greene Trenton, TN "Johnny T.

I remember an outbreak, in 1987 I think it was, and they were everywhere. I was in the mountains of north Georgia near Hiawassee, and I could not believe the noise they made. It sounded to me like a motor of some kind. I thought I was near some kind of industrial plant. Some birds will surely have a feast.
