Dozens of photos of the Highland county Swallow-tailed Kite have been
uploaded by various observers to the "Ohio Birds" facebook group, and many
of these show great feather details (note that viewing them does require a
facebook account).
Photos of the bird can also be found via the "Central Ohio Birders"
facebook group (these do NOT require a facebook account for viewing):
https://www.facebook.com/groups/CentralOhioBirders/search/?query=Kite
Photos can also be found elsewhere on the web at photo hosting sites by
searching for various combinations of keywords like Swallow-tailed Kite,
Ohio, New Vienna, Highland, STKI.
For example, here are some on Flickr.com:

Good birding,
