Here is another from my last Winter Owl Workshop on February 25, 2025. This is the Kestrel that Dave Evans spotted first with a European Starling. It dropped the Starling and flew to the nearest telephone pole as I stopped the van. We set up hoping it would return to its feast - we all left smiling!

More Kudos!

“I have been home for a few days, and I just wanted to thank you for such an amazing time this past week! …… I am so grateful that I got the opportunity to join and learn from you. I truly appreciate all of your advice, help, and patience. The whole week was an incredible experience!” - Maya Alpert | California | USA (Group 8/8 Owls February 2025).
