Mississippi Kite (Female)

Warrenton, Virginia

The male and female perched at the very top of a large Tulip Poplar tree about half way down our front field; at first they were several feet apart, then, they reset much closer together and I was able to get both in a single shot.
This was the female preening. Best viewed in 'original' size.
