I’ve been seeing a group of three of these birds hanging around my neighborhood this past week. They are some kind of flyers. I just figured out what they are, Mississippi Kites. I don’t recall ever seeing them before. Maybe my noticing skills are improving and they’ve been there all along.

Maybe I’m an idiot. But they’re cool as shit to watch.
This photo is from audubon and is persactly how they look.

Wow, that's like a really big tree swallow. Looks like it is made to move fast for sure.

Ummmm, wouldn't that mean your noticing skills are DETERIORATING? :huh

They may have been there all along, but you JUST NOW noticed them?? (I hate being logical) ;)

Yes. So noticing skills are improving.

I'm only about an hour from the Oklahoma border now and I've seen all sorts of weird critters I've never seen before since I've gotten up here. I saw an ibis in with a flock of cattle egrets one day and all sorts of birds I've got to figure out. Also a lot of two legged critters I'm not sure about either
