Merry Christmas everyone!! Have a wonderful day!!
Found throughout SA and often seen perching on telephone lines.
Are great hoverers and will then swoop down to catch prey.
Mainly solitary but sometimes seen as a pair.
Nestling cared for only by female for up to 3 months.

Merry Christmas, Joan! What beautiful images. I posted a Black-shouldered Kite last Wednesday. Don't they make a good photo op? Have a wonderful year. Greetings, Jo (Tanzania)
