Thats way cool, Carlo! We have them here too in southern california. Warm weather doesn't seem to bother them. Nice job!

Carlo, would you believe I saw 21 kites roosting down the street 2 weeks ago? They moved on, doing this for a few weeks every fall to find a mate they meet up. I saw them last year about 3 miles from here. So we do have quite a few! i love that hawk! Found a nest last year. Amazing food exchanges to the babies. If there were two, maybe you can find the nest? Good luck!
