A Black-shouldered Kite having a stretch.

A little bit of footage of an adult Black-shouldered Kite having a stretch.
I stopped my car just on the sunny side of this perched bird and it stayed put, instead of flying off. Normally, it wouldn't tolerate such a close approach...
A Skylark can be heard in the background.
