The American kestrel (Falco sparverius) is the smallest and most common falcon in North America. It also ranges to South America, and is a well-established species that has evolved seventeen subspecies adapted to different environments and habitats throughout the Americas. The American kestrel usually hunts in energy-conserving fashion by perching and scanning the ground for prey to ambush, though it also hunts from the air. It sometimes hovers in the air with rapid wing beats while homing in on prey. Its diet typically consists of grasshoppers and other insects, lizards, mice, and small birds (e.g. sparrows). This broad diet has contributed to its wide success as a species. It nests in cavities in trees, cliffs, buildings, and other structures. The female lays three to seven eggs, which both sexes help to incubate. ・・・ #growninhaiti #AmericanKestrel #falcon #FalcoSparverius #perched #hunter #haiti #ayiti #birdsofhaiti #birdsofprey #biodiversity #agroforestry #reforestation #fauna https://www.instagram.com/p/B9WoAhYl9HR/?igshid=1sh0nvecg538q

The American Kestrel is the smallest falcon in North America. Have you seen one this spring? They typically arrive back in Vermont in early March. They like open areas, and the best places to spot them is around farms, fields, and grassland areas. 📷 by Mark Paul #AmericanKestrel #Falcosparverius #BirdsOfVermont (at Vermont) https://www.instagram.com/p/COdLWwiBqzF/?igshid=1164sg8buz23t

American Kestrel on Maverick 100s . The most common falcon in the USA, the American Kestrel is one of the best birds to start with if you want to get into Falconry. I once considered buying myself a falconers glove just so I could reenact the opening lines of The Second Coming by W.B. Yeats but ultimately a dishwashing glove would have had the same effect without an actual Falcon to lose control of. . “Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold Mere anarchy is looked upon the world...” . #AmericanKestrel #FalcoSparverius #maverick100s #ciggiepackart #thesecondcoming #wbyeats #houlart #houl https://www.instagram.com/p/BxavLZ9BfBj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ejjiwcu2j5wm
