The species mentioned on this thread’s title is said to be very rare in the Yucatan peninsula, but in fact, some do pass by the area during migration (I’ve seen it twice). So, I’ve got a question. Does anyone know if individuals here cross the gulf or migrate by land?

This page at Audubon with species migration map shows their migration route as by land. https://explorer.audubon.org/explore/species/953/mississippi-kite/migration?sidebar=collapse&layersPanel=expand&zoom=2&x=838551.2332999995&y=-926897.4441499999&range=0.4249%2C0.4449
