Guest.... Look up a male Northern Harrier. Looks and flies somewhat similar and is much more common. This is only the 5th record ever for a White-tailed Kite in Wisconsin.

I saw this guy back in July over a field just South of Hartford -- unfortunately no pic because I was driving. Thanks for confirming!

Wow - white feathers that seem like they're sculptured - and those large red eyes - hauntingly beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Dave!
