Male American Kestrel hovering repeatedly over the fields on north side of Quail John Road in Thetford late this morning.  I don't know what he nailed when he finally dove but appeared to be enjoying it on a wire across the field.

 

Minutes earlier, a red-tailed hawk wheeling over the same field, eventually harassed into the woods by a single very agile crow.  Turning and swerving the way it did, was easy to see why they are called "red-tailed".  Beautiful.
