From my son-in-law


 Our son-in-law sent me these yesterday.  For all you birders, what kind of hawk is it.


It is banded but I cannot see all that it says.


It was on scaffolding where he works.

    Wow! It looks a bit like a Kestril, but I am not certain.

    That was nice of our son-in-law. 😊
    I'm afraid I'm not a birder.

    A juvenile Peregrine Falcon. It doesn't quite look right, so I suspect that American birds vary a bit from ours.

    He looks a bit annoyed that all those strange creatures have invaded his domain.

    That looks like a Peregrine Falcon to me... they like to nest on rooftops so if it has fledglings, it will be keeping an eye! What a fab set of shots!!! YAM xx

    It looks like a young hawk but I am not sure of type.

    My best guess is a Peregrine Falcon but not sure. It is wearing a lot of bling.

    Wonderful shots from you Son in law.
    I don't know my hawks but there seems to be an agreement that this is a falcon.
    We do see ones like this out in the fields around our home.
