Cold American Kestrel

It was cold out and this little American Kestrel (Sparrow Hawk) was creating his own
"down" filled coat in order to keep warm. They aren't much bigger than a
good-sized Robin as you can see by his size in relation to the handler's
gloves.

American Kestrel (Falco sparverius) is a small falcon. This bird was formerly known in North America as the Sparrow Hawk. This name was misleading because it implied a connection with the Eurasian Sparrowhawk Accipiter nisus, which is unrelated - the latter is a accipiter hawk rather than a falcon.
