## Description

JACKITE OSPREY

Review: Great kite for fun and keeping birds from your fruit trees - Years ago I purchased a Jackite Osprey at a kite store in Palm Springs, Ca. Flew it as a kite and used it in classes when demonstrating "scarecrows." The kite is very realistic when in flight as it will hover, dart right or left, and the wings will flap. I once was flying it at the beach when a lady came up berating me for catching a "hawk" on my fishing line... when she finally paused long enough for me to get a word in, I told her it was a kite! She looked... and looked... then, finally smiled and walked away. The kite is made of a very strong plastic/paper (kevlar?) that is durable and long lasting. However, I learned the hard way that if the wing gets caught tight, you can, if careless, rip the material. I ended up ripping the wing off. Was delighted to find that they still make the Jackite and you can purchase it on desertcart.com. I bought the "assembled" version which does require some final assembly - well documented in the material that comes with the kite. If you attach a line to the "beak" of the kite and the other end to a pole in your garden, it will "fly" in the wind and chase away many of the birds the like to damage fruit. I plan to use this new kite in this manor for my cherry trees - or perhaps my strawberry patch. They sell fiberglass poles just for this purpose but I've heard you can also use pvc tubbing. Don't know how well that will work but I might try it. On my old kite, they also had a hole on the "chest" area of the kite where you could attach a string and fly it as a kite. This hole might have been added at the kite shop where I purchased my first kite. The new kite does not have any pre-made hole so you have to make it yourself. I made several along the chest area as some locations result in better flying when the wind is strong or weak. This is a great product and I highly recommend it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved mine.
*by W***. on June 4, 2020*

I am currently waiting on my 2nd Bird to be delivered. I had one for 2 years and I loved it. Well made although I recommend taking it down during heavy storms. Made of heavy Tyvek paper; but it is possible for it to tear. I purchased a fiberglass extendable pole but have read you could use a fishing pole too. I do enjoy watching it fly, beat its wings, and soar to a new position, so do all the neighbors. Didn't buy it for any special reason just plain enjoyment. The neighbor uses it to tell him which way the wind is blowing so he knows if it is safe to have a fire. Update. The 2nd one didn't make it through one full Summer. I am very disappointed. I had to repair it several times during the season and pitched it out about 3/4 of the way through Summer. Not as sturdy as the first one.
