Jefferson Shank Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Yes, I think it is a Prairie Falcon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akandula Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Looks better for an American Kestrel. Note the pale underwings -- Prairie Falcons have black coverts and axillaries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phalarope713 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Agree with kestrel. The dark “armpits” would be apparent on a Prairie Falcon. Edited February 14, 2020 by Phalarope713 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
