[Tweeters] Eurasian Kestrel

[Nelson Briefer]

Possible E.Kestrel, Thomle Road Stanwood. Before checking the books and
video of this species, I wish to get this info out. From the size , shape ,
proportion, and wing movements, I am thinking this hawk is E. Kestrel. On
the last field of the road  on the left side going north. Initial
observation of the - this? Hawk was when it landed on a thin irrigation
ditch 30 yards away. This bird or hawk punched on something. I observed a
flash of yellow from the outreaching wings. The sighting was naked eye and
was no sun . The hawk appeared to be all black and ripped across the road
to be behind us. If coming up with any more interpretations I will post it.
