Mississippi Kite, Sterling Forest, Orange County I finally headed up to Sterling Forest after work to lookfor the Mississippi Kites. I arrived at 5:15 PM to a couple of birders but nokites. At 5:49 one soared in from the north and circled overhead for about 10minutes before coming down and landing in the bare tree. I left the area tobird Ironwood Road, lots of bird but the Golden-winged Warblers were silent.After a half hour I checked on the kites again to see if the second bird hadcome in but it had not. I left the area around 6:50PM For those needing directions to the area, Hudson RiverAudubon’s web site has direction from Westchester County/Tappan Zee Bridge at http://www.hras.org/wtobird/strelingforest.html Michael Bochnik
