Subject: [NS-RBA] Eurasian Kestrel
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2014 16:34:16 -0400
From: Hans htoom@hfx.eastlink.ca [NS-RBA] <NS-RBA-noreply@yahoogroups.com>

I spotted the *Eurasian Kestrel* at 10:30AM at the corner of Caldwell
and Shore Roads. It hunts from the trees and shrubs near the dog-leg in
the tractor trail that climbs the hill east of Shore Road. I expect it
is hunting small rodents and birds. It flew off at 11:10AM with a crow
on its tail but it returned almost immediately to resume hunting in the
same spot until 12:30PM when another crow chased it off. It was last
seen hovering towards the south, directing toward Hartlen Point.
At the top of the hill was a *Northern Flicker* and below the road at
the golf course were two *Wilson's Snipes*.
Despite burning off over 200 frames not a single photo is anything more
than record quality. All the photos were taken from the water side of
Shore Road. The bird in my frame was about pixel view size, just big
enough to cover the small rectangle in my view finder that denotes the
centre spot focus area.
I didn't approach the bird since hunting is essential to its survival in
this weather and flushing it would be cruelty.
