Attached are some photos of the Swallow-tailed Kite at at the corner of
Manning and Diamond-Mill roads in Germantown including a series of photos
of the kite seeing, catching and eating an insect all while in flight.
Cool stuff!

As of 3:30pm when I left, the bird was soaring/foraging towards the

Happy birding!
