The "kite" that he is talking about is, My guess, Scorpio.
Thank you for that! It does appear that three stars in the “tail” (ζ2, μ1 [Denebakrab], and ε [Wei]) appear to point to Polaris while three stars in the “claws” (π [Vrischika], δ [Dschubba], and β1 [Acrab]) appear to make the diagonal line in front. Good catch!
