majestic red kite
darting steely eyes seek prey
look ... no strings attached

Wow, a great haiku, Jan! Very nice twist with "no strings attached." If for a contest, surely a winner. Hugs, Carolyn

Bird can be grateful that you didn't write 'no wings detached!'... Well, your idea is much funnier/cuter anyway. Nice haiku, Jan!

I missed the kite and string connection as I thought your last line referred to the tethered birds or prey! Well done! Aloha! Rico
