[cobirds] Mississippi Kite, El Paso County, 5/19

Good afternoon,
  I looked up while pulling into my driveway in downtown Colorado Springs to see an adult Mississippi Kite soaring overhead, a fairly unusual bird for this part of Colorado.  Unmistakable: smallish raptor, pointy wings, grey belly, black wedge-shaped tail. Last seen at about Willamette and Cedar around 4:00 PM, drifting east-northeast.  Sadly it disappeared when I ran in to grab my camera.
