About the size of a robin, the American Kestrel is the smallest falcon in North America. It lives in a variety of habitats including open fields, deserts, parks and suburbs. It's often seen on telephone wires near highways. A kestrel hunts by hovering in mid-air or watching from a perch until it sees prey it can dive upon. It feeds mainly on insects during summer months and small rodents and birds in winter.
