The kites showed up in our backyard again yesterday. For a while, two of them were right next to each other on a branch of this pine tree. There were not, however, accommodating to the photographer.

I took about 60 pictures and culled out most. The lighting was not great. My attempts with my big lens were really hampered by the poor lighting. They stuck around long enough that I should have pulled out the tripod.

Maybe they'll be around over the next couple of days for me to try again.
