White-tailed Kite male in flight

Here is another shot of the male White-tailed Kite near McMinnville as he headed out on another hunting trip. The pair is continuing to carry sticks to their nest, but I'm surprised that they do not yet appear to be incubating eggs. Maybe the behavior I observed last week did not necessarily mean that eggs were being produced, but it would seem strange to me if that were the case. More unanswered questions to ponder.
