Subject: [LACoBirds] Swallow-tailed Kite Wing Mark
We were fortunate enough to see the Swallow-tailed Kite at Ken Molloy Harbor Regional Park today. All of my photos show a lucency in the right wing at the base of the 1st primary. It is probably from a projectile. It may be a useful identifying feature if the bird is seen in the future.
