March 20, 2026

I am known as a Swallow-tailed Kite
I usually look more dignified than this 
But some stupid bug is dive bombing me
And to be honest, I'm getting quite ticked!

(I couldn't get a photo of whatever it was that was bothering the poor bird, but it was driving him nuts. I really hope it doesn't stop him from coming back to our yard!)
