Swallow-Tailed Kite

I saw a bird. It was soaring above. It was flying kind of like a kite, and my mom said that she thought it was the kind of bird that was called the kite. It is quite pretty. It is white underneath. On its tail there are two black lines on the edges, and there are two black lines on the edges of its wings too. It looked like it was soaring for food, since it kind of soars in circles. I love it. But then, my mommy looked it up, and she said that it was called a Swallow-Tailed Kite, instead of just Kite. It was quite pretty.
