Really an excellent raptor gallery. I see I have some work to do to attain your level. You couldn't possibly have a job, because I see lots and lots of time shooting birds. Voted.

I'm an avid bicyclyst on Marsh Creek Trail, No. California and have fallen in love with the raptors. I've been approached in the past by a Peregrine Falcon who appeared to want to be friends, he even landed on the trail and stared at me. Another time a Goshawk landed on a low wire fence and seemed to want something, but I had no food for him. I was amazed at these encounters! Your site is THE BEST and is helping me identify a few I'm not familiar with such as the Cooper's. I wear a multi colored visor and the American Kestrel seems to favor me at times. I've offered my arm for him to land while talking to him. Recently, I did that to a Red Shoulder I spotted in a different place and heard a commotion closeby and then a Kestrel dive bombed the Red Shoulder I was talking to who had fluffed up his feathers. I've seen them all here, including the fishing Osprey once in awhile. I had a Leghorn rooster named Rosie who rode on my bike when I was young. Went to Lindsay Wildlife Museum recently and left bawling because they can never fly again, met a Kestrel who takes care of baby birds, and a Swainson who has been there since 1993.

ty for your site, beautiful photos. Because of your site I was able to identify a wounded bird my grandson found out in the backyard. It is an Amersican Kestrel, male. Beautiful bird. I live in Independence, Missouri. I am taking "Oscar" to a place tomorrow so he can heal and be set free in the wild again. Are these birds usually tame? Thanks again1
