Margaret Carney watched a high-flying possible Mississippi Kite flying westward over Thickson's Woods at 9:30 a.m. this morning. The bird was dark with fairly short wings and a short fan-shaped tail. The bird called constantly in flight, but the second part of the two-note call rose rather than descending in the more typical Mississippi Kite call.
. Birders to the west might want to watch.
