Outstanding job on a hard-to catch little guy. American Kestrels are no bigger than a robin; is this fellow that small?

Je suis juste onnpar la couleur du fond qui ne donne aucune explication sur les conditions de prises de vues, mais l'attitude n'en reste pas moins majestueuse. Bravo pour la prouesse technique !

nelsone, They are slightly bigger than a pigeon. They catch & eat pigeons too, which I've seen once; very distressing to watch, but nonetheless amazing for it!
