The Swallow-tailed Kite was seen again at the same location at 4 p.m. after
the storm had passed through.
It was taking a considerable amount of harassment from the local bird
population.
Groups of grackles would attack whenever it landed in the pines, and a
Kingbird kept following wherever it went.
It was last seen circling over the Buffalo River with Turkey and Black
Vultures.
As far as I know, nobody looked for it since 4:00.
