IKLland Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 So I have seen them, but haven’t taken a picture of them yet. If I get one later this week I will post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnd Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I see these every where, hard to get a nice shot since they move a round a LOT and like to stay in the foliage   2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly uncommon in my area (handful of sightings per year) but not impossible so I will make the effort this year as I would love to see one.

They're not super common here, either. I only started seeing them when I learned their calls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I see one about once every two weeks here, but sometimes less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to hijack the thread any further but out of responses again. Pretty distinctive call so I will watch out for sightings in the Spring and go into action. I love the photos with the spread tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floraphile Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I see them once or twice a week in our suburban yard and usually every time I go out to our rural property.  They are difficult to photograph well.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, I don't think anyone is going to complain if someone's timing is off a bit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 For some reason this bird seem to be a have to see bird for all new birders, the American Kestrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
