🦉 The black kite (Milvus migrans)

📚 Milvus (lat) - kite
📚 migrans (lat.) - migrating

The arrival of these birds falls at the very beginning of April, approximately on the 2nd or 4th. But at this time they can only be seen in the forests, where they have mating games. Males try to fly as close to females as possible, thus showing their agility in flight.
And after some time, after about 3 weeks, they can already fly around city yards.

When I moved from another region, I was very surprised to see these birds in the yard for the first time. I even thought that they were someone's, someone let them fly from house.
And they fly over yards because they like to profit from pigeons crushed by cars, and they also like to steal something from garbage cans.
