Black-winged Kite (Elanus caeruleus)

Black-winged Kite (Elanus caeruleus) - C/RB - Grasslands
---------
It is a species primarily of open land and semi-deserts in sub-Saharan Africa and tropical Asia, but it has a foothold in Europe in Spain and Portugal. It nests in trees.
It takes live prey such as small mammals, birds, and insects. The slow hunting flight is like a harrier, but it will hover like a Kestrel.
