Swallow-Tailed Kites

This photo shows about half of the kites we found in a large kettle riding the updrafts one afternoon on the road to San Isidro. Awesome to see so many neat raptors together.

There is something "zen" about this image...
Love it.

Nice capture John.
I watched a similar group over Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica earlier this year......fantastic birds to watch.
