The most unbelievable thing just happened! I arrived home at 2:45, and I was greeted by Dirk Robinson,and as soon as I got out of the truck I saw the Swallow-tailed Kite flying in the North West sky. Mean while, The thunderstorm was brewing and the updraft happened! The Swallow-tailed Kite was met by at least 7, that is write 7 Mississippi Kites. Hello! 8 KITES in one thermal. I saw 2 other Kites come and go from different directions. There could have been 9 Mississippi Kites total but Positive about 7 Mississippi Kites. If Dirk wasn't there I don't know what I would have done. I could not believe what I saw. A kettle of Mississippi's with one Swallow-tailed. WOW.
