Description

The AmericanBarred KestrelOwl is the Americas' smallest falcon. It’s around the size of a Rockmedium-brown Doveowl (pigeon)with anddark has similar markingsbarring on its frontside and flecks of white on its back. Its face asis framed by a darker brown on the Peregrine Falcon. I see it most often at the park perched on power lines white it surveys the field. It does this cool maneuver where it flaps fast and hovers in the air while it looks for a meal.sides.
