Location Naples Bay, Naples, FL
I completely owe this one to our guide as well. I caught only a quick view as it swooped over the water ahead of us and flew into the mangroves. Fortunately, it was pretty unmistakable.
He characterized this bird as a harbinger of spring for them in southwestern Florida. Indeed, the dolphin guide (Kent) the next day would mention to me that a kite had been sighted recently, as though that were a notable event -- notable presumably because of the aforementioned signaling of spring.
