A white-tailed kite observes the surrounding area March 4, 2021, at Travis Air Force Base, California. These birds will rapidly flap their wings to hover above the ground using a maneuver called kiting to hunt for small prey in the grass. Travis AFB’s Natural Resources Program is responsible for surveys, analysis and documentation of threatened and endangered species, wetlands, forest resources and other field studies.
