My Kestrel babies have moved to a nearby tree and were spending the morning learning how to hop from branch to branch and even fly a little. One of them managed to snag the featured image spot as it struggles to balance on a branch. Other perching birds (Eastern Kingbird and Osprey) are pictured here and at the bottom of this post. I was not able to see the Red-tailed Hawk baby but I think it was in the nest, though no adult was anywhere to be seen.
