kites and migrants



Mississippi Kites continue to be easy to find in Roanoke Rapids.  Corner of 
8th St. and Franklin St. is best starting point.  Nest seems to be a block 
southeast, and 2 birds were last seen moving west and then soaring above a 
school several blocks west.  A half hour seems to produce a sighting; 
sometimes less time to find birds.  Presumably more will be visible later, 
if/when young fledge.
Only shorebirds were 56 Killdeer at Winslow Sod Farm, Scotland Neck, on 
26th.
Prairie Warblers and Yellowthroats common this week at edge of field around 
my home, as if migrating.  Not present during "breeding" season.
