The weather here has been terrific for getting around. Thanks to the Imagemeister for a heads up on an American Kestrel he found close by us. And to another friend who had spotted the Crested Caracara also not far away.
The Sandhill crane and one of their colts is just down the street.

All five birds are beauties, but the kestrel shot's a joy to behold! The radiating vegetation in the background makes it a winner.

Thanks vonzip for looking. I'm afraid Bret has me beat. Our season is about to end and yours is about to begin.

All are nice photos. The one that grabs me is the little one being 'schooled'.

Thank you Mikwar. That Kestrel is quite a challenge, he's small, quick and leary.
