Good evening guys, I had so many people ask me what do the American Kestrels eat and until today I really didn’t know?  Well at 4:00 today I got my answer!  I watched in disbelief as this Kestrel attacked this little yellow bird in mid flight and brought him back to earth to eat.  I never would have guessed he was hunting this type of prey?  I thought he was only eating lizards?  I told you all these birds were incredible hunters, it seems nothing is safe when these guys are on the prowl.  I also observed this Kestrel flying over the tree tops and noticed every other bird flew off in the opposite direction in fear for their lives!! 

 

It was a long day at work today am going to bed early.  Hope all is well talk to you all tomorrow, Barry
