Hello Everyone,
The White-tailed Kite was still pr= esent today near the Leola Marsh in
AdamsCounty. Very friendly local bird= ers ( Gary, Dave, and Rob, and others
) had located it ( Gary had it nicely= in his scope for viewing for new
arrivals ) and pointing it out to me and = others coming on by. 
It stayed perched in a bare tree south of Ap= ache Ave. and west of County
W,from about 5 pm until it took off hunting o= r to avoid a nearby Northern
Harrier. Around 6 pm it took off and flew tow= ard Apache Ave. and was
hunting north of Apache Ave. and finally disappeare= d.  A very gifted
flier.
Eastern Meadowlarks were seen and hea= rd in this area as well.
Thanks to everyone for the updates.  = A big thanks to Quentin Yoerger who I
believe initially located this very = good find.Good Birding,Bob
MatyasFranklin, WI.
