American Kestrel
Same bird as above. I found this one on the north side.
I normally would not include pictures of this poor quality
but it was fun to watch the kestrel eat a bug while on the wing.
This was over the rapid infiltration cells.
In this picture you can see a leg from the bug dropping to
the ground.
Here again the picture is not real good. If you look closely,
you can see what appears to be a tether hanging from its leg.
This kestrel was at Swanson and White Roads.

Charlie, if you need to apologize for the quality of your photos, I need to be arrested for posting mine. Without these images, how many of us would ever see the leg of a bug falling off as it's eaten by a flying kestrel? Thanks!
And let's hope that tether doesn't cost him his life someday.
