American Kestrel in Hennepin County
2016-01-28

Uncommon in Hennepin County in the Winter season

As I pulled into the parking lot at the MVNWR Visitor Center today, I watched this kestrel drop from a nearby tree into the snow. It came up with a vole, carried it to another tree, and proceeded to dine.
