Description

Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni)

  • Local namr: Grillaio
  • Location: Altamura, Apulia, Italy
  • June 6, 2008

Looking up on the streets of Altamura one sees not the usual feral pigeons, the bane of cities, but graceful kestrels. This is a testimony of the success of a remarkable project , more about it here http://www.nandoperettifound.org/en/page.php?project=116&page=1&cat=3&con=1

Walking around for a mere 15 minutes I must have seen at least 20 different individuals soaring over the roof tops and then gliding in to land on (or rather under) the rooftops.
