The American Kestrel is a small, colorful bird of prey found throughout North and South America. It is the smallest falcon in North America and is known for its distinctive markings, including a rust-colored back and tail, blue-gray wings, and a black and white face pattern. American Kestrels are skilled hunters, feeding on insects, small mammals, and birds. They are also known for their acrobatic flight patterns and can often be seen hovering in mid-air while searching for prey. Despite their small size, American Kestrels are important predators in their ecosystems and are considered a species of conservation concern due to declining populations in some areas.
