@wildsnwags.bsky.socialFrom a distance, I thought he was just a robin in the treetops. On closer inspection through the lens, I realized someone much more fierce was on that branch: a male American Kestrel scanning the fields with pure raptor focus. 🦅👀 No mice are safe!
@raptororg.bsky.socialOur Wildlife Interpreter takeover continues! Did you know that most raptors do not have visible differences in pattern or coloring between males and females, but the American Kestrel breaks that rule!

@melindabhipple.bsky.socialCaught an #AmericanKestrel pair hanging out in my little downtown a couple of springs ago. (I omitted the more amorous photo. 👀)
For Atlantic Birding's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #Raptors.

@peterwelsh.bsky.socialAmerican Kestrel (could be Merlin...?) hunting Dragonflies in High Park, Toronto.
And it was having a lot of success.

@cissybgood67.bsky.socialNorth America’s smallest falcon, the #AmericanKestrel, weighs only around 100 grams, yet is an accomplished aerial hunter!
