SE Arizona 10 day birding blitz!

10,000 Birds

There is believed to be a very small breeding population of Mississippi Kites that occupy a small area that borders Pima and Cochise Counties. We saw a total of 7 Mississippi Kites, and these three birds were hunting on the Pima County side of the line. Not great photos but what can you expect for a bird that was 500-600 yards away?
