BOTD: Mississippi Kite
Photo: Andy Reago & Chrissy McClarren
"One of our most graceful fliers, this kite glides, circles, and swoops in pursuit of large flying insects. Despite the name, it is most common on the southern Great Plains. During recent decades, the planting of trees in shelterbelts and towns has made it possible for this bird to nest in many areas where it was formerly scarce; many towns on the southern plains now have their own nesting colonies of Mississippi Kites."
- Audubon Field Guide

Video shows fireballs raining down on children flying kites in #Gaza
Please watch this, spread it, and reblog. This is infuriating.

Me and one of my moots been chatting once again about Jimmy on Pirates smp. I've mentioned that Kite Jimmy would be a funny idea.
Jimmy would join the kites but he's IN NO WAY good at fighting. He's quite frankly pathetic at pvp and everyone knew it, no one took him as a threat at all!
But Bek and Krow very much so saw the guy and went "sad lost puppy", but thats not what made them take him in at first. It was just out of spite for Martyn and Scott.
But now both Bek and Krow actually care about him and act like overprotective siblings, bodyguarding him to keep the others away. No one can resist the loser boy swag.
Krow banters with Jimmy constantly, tattle-tellih on him, just like in the rat's smp.
