The Everglades kite primarily feeds on snails, particularly apple snails, which are abundant in its wetland habitat. It uses its specialized beak to extract these snails from their shells. In addition to snails, the kite may also consume other small invertebrates and occasionally small fish. This diet plays a crucial role in its ecological niche within the Everglades ecosystem.
