Dustin Thames, a TWRA nongame biologist from our Crossville office, got a 
couple calls today about 2 swallow-tailed kites that were seen today on Hwy 
127, about 10 miles south of Pikeville, Bledsoe Co.  I don't have more details, 
but wanted to pass along the info.  I don't know if this is close to where 
birds were hanging out last year, but they are right on time!

Positive/negative reports on kites in the area would be most appreciated.  
Maybe these birds will hang around long enough for me to get a chance to see 
one!

Cheers,
