The American Kestrel is the smallest of the regularly-occurring falcons in 
North America north of Mexico.  As is usual for birds of prey the male is 
somewhat smaller than the female.  He may be tiny but his attitude is 100% 
falcon.  Mouse, beware!

technical stuff:

R8/DMR @ ISO 400
280mm f/4 APO-Telyt-R
about 1/750 sec @ f/5.6
shoulder stock & monopod

All comments welcome.
