I've been seeing a Kestrel pair several days running, midday, in the
field just south of NE 124th St., east of Willows Drive and west of
the river. The pair has been on the roadside utility poles/wires as
well as on the shrubs and blackberry brambles in the field. I've
watched them hunting rodents. It will be interesting to see if they
remain and establish a nest.

I'll post a photo later today, but right now my ftp isn't working. Look for
