Re: [cobirds] Mississippi Kite Update/Glenmere

The adult has a very nice red iris. Two of the other three birds look like they may have brown irises. Enlarging the photo should clarify this. If the irises are brown, the birds are immatures. This would make a nice atlas record.

Just saw this elsewhere ... "As Tom was taking photos, I noticed something move to the right of our cooperative bird and there were 3 more sitting among the leaves! What a fun day! If you'd care to view photos, go to: http://www.pbase.com/canon_clicker/mississippi_kite.  Tom and Mary F"

Looks like there may be more than two present--wonder if they are immatures??

Thanks Gary Lefko, Nunn
