Hi, Linda, and fellow birders... The kestrel has been there since at least Tuesday. I was in St. Paul to see a client Tuesday morning and swung by the museum to see if I could see the solitare. No solitare, but the kestrel was tail-stretching and bobbing on several high perches. What a treat.
Good birding.

It then flew toward the river walk, where it was spotted again on the dome of a streetlight. Also present downtown was a red-tail hawk. At MNRVNW Refuge headquarters there was a small gathering of hawks circling over the marsh, along with resident eagles; other than a couple of cormorants overhead, no one else "newly arrived."
