I see that our observation of 131 Swallow-tailed Kites northwest of Glennville is not showing up on eBird if you use the Explore function in the website (searching for Swallow-tailed Kite recent observations on the Large Map). Not sure why that is, but I wanted to give folks a little more information if they wanted to try for these birds.
Merriell Mike Durrence Rd. is an unpaved public road, and it's easy to pull off to the side (well out of the way of traffic!) to bird the watermelon field on the south side of the road. Here are the coordinates for the spot from which we birded: 32.015179, -81.971317
Noon to around 2 PM is probably prime time for the kites.
Yours, Malcolm Hodges Riverdale, Ga.
