Title: Kestrel Rescued in Downtown Rochester
Post by: Shaky on 01-Jul-14, 02:42:00 PM
Someone found a young kestrel on the ground near Main and St. Paul in downtown Rochester over the noon hour today. Animal control was called, and the bird was taken away. Witnesses described the kestrel as active and unafraid.

THIS IS NOT ONE OF OUR PEREGRINE FALCONS.
PLEASE DO NOT CALL ANIMAL CONTROL.
DO NOT CALL NYS DEC.
DO NOT CALL EVERY WILDLIFE REHABBER WITHIN A HUNDRED MILE RADIUS OF ROCHESTER.

It didn't come from one of our watchers, so I didn't know if it had already gotten out through unofficial channels. In a situation like that, the only option is to post the facts and warn everyone not to bother the authorities and rehabbers.
