Description
Swallow Tailed Kite by D Hackett
There are numerous Swallow-tailed Kites here in Florida and I love seeing them soaring in the sky. This was drawn on toned paper using pencil, colored pencil, colored markers and soft pastels.
Swallow-tailed Kites
A strikingly marked raptor of wetlands in the southeastern United States, the Swallow-tailed Kite captures flying insects or plucks insects and lizards from the tops of trees.
The Swallow-tailed Kite rarely flap its wings while flying, but it almost continuously rotates its tail, often to nearly 90 degrees, in order to hold a heading, make a sharp turn, or trace tight circles while drifting across the sky.
The Swallow-tailed Kite frequently eats while flying.
