Judging from the plant its perching on, I'm gonna guestimate that it's about 75% the size of a kestrel.. looks eerily similar to a kestrel.... Where in the world do you find something like this in it's own habitat?

Sep 20, 2011 05:36 | #11 Thank you everyone for the kind words. This bird was just amazing, but you could definitely tell it had a lot of attitude in that little body.
