Title: Are the Falcons Red Wings fans?

I was at Frontier Field last night and on the wire overhead was what I thought was a falcon, eating his (her) dinner of a small bird. Possible? Many at the ball game saw it and some caught pictures, but I didn't have my camera or binoculars (rats!)

Hello CarolKat.   :wave:

I've seen Kestrels in the area around Kodak Office, but it certainly could have been a Peregrine.  Although Archer and Beauty seem to be eating their meals closer to the Times Square bldg.  Thanks for reporting!

I did some investigating and I bet that was it - a Kestrel. It seemed a bit small for a Peregrine.
Thanks!!!

I saw the Krestal too.  We had bionoculars on it.  Great show and a very good ballgame too.  Good thing the "dinner' didn't fall into beer.
