Thanks all.

Fai:  Just luck indeed.  It was just reported on 29Jul from the WWF blackboard.  One more record last week for the black-winged kite, if my memory is correct.  Yes, just handheld digiscope with around 50mm focal length.  So high ISO was used with much noise.

Gary:  I think so but not 100% confirmed.  It's my new tick!

BTW, I saw it at Pond #8.  It hovered and perched on those leafless branches alternately.

Ooooooooooo....
Which time, I leave pond 8 about 2:00pm

6:45 p.m onwards. Did not spot it before then. Flying around and hovering for about 20 minutes. Not shy at all.
Hope that helps.

We were also at MaiPo during 5:30pm John, if someone was making considerable amount of noise downstairs of you at the tower hide, it would probably been us!! The BWK was hovering and hunting near the lily pond for 30 minutes before 7pm.
