Hello Tweeters,
In a birding topic in the Utne Cafe, I read the following posting from an
observer of Kestral behavior (somewhere in southwestern US). Has anyone else
noticed Kestrals feeding on roadkill?


Here's a weird thing: the other day I saw two Kestrels going after a road
kill! I've never seen them interested in anything they didn't kill
themselves. Could they have been juveniles that didn't know any better?

Leha

I would appreciate an email response since I am no longer on Tweeters. I
will monitor the digest anyway for the next week.
