Just random patch of green on a big tree that has lost the rest of its leaves
Kestrels have the prettiest eyes! This gal was no exception
This bird was caught and banded for population research with proper permitting.
Still kicking myself for forgetting my camera today! Lifer caracaras, and they’re paired! Such an awesome sight!!!
Sad find :’( Stopped a couple days ago to check if this owl on the side of the road might have been alive, sadly he wasn’t. Realized I should have checked him for bands, so I stopped again today, still in the same spot. No band, but quite the beautiful bird! And check out the size of those talons. Ended up pulling him off of the highway, and leaving him for someone’s next meal.
Pretty boy!
