Kestrel male extreme closeup

Yardbird Terrace Heights

This little fledgeling Kestrel got too close to a Robin nest. Momma Robin body slammed the little guy and knocked him out of the tree. With conrtolled crash the extent of his flying skills he wound up on the ground. I kept him in the house and fed him Friday through Monday and put him back in the tree with a full crop.
