I'm hoping that the kettle remained in the area and didn't fly off?!?! Yes,
No?

Subject: [MDOSPREY] Kite factory, unbelievable


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.
