| American Kestrel - Falco sparverius | Valerie Heemstra | 2023-07-18 | Cornell Township (near Cornell), Delta County, Michigan, Delta (United States) (220 m) | call, Klee series - Recording modified by replacing long periods of no bird call with 1 second silence. Calls came from unseen bird or birds in tree tops of forest that was more than 70 meters distant and recordist was on road in meadow. Initially a juvenile Bald Eagle was circling over the area, joined by two Turkey Vultures, and then an adult Bald Eagle. Closer at hand was an American Kestrel perched on a roof of an abandoned building, but this bird was silent. Near the source of the calls were Northern Raven vocalizations, and a Red-headed Woodpecker could be seen at the top of one of the trees with its wings widespread. From time to time an American Kestrel (both male and female seen) flew near the source of the calls, and one of these was carrying something in its talons. Forest was mixed, both deciduous and spruce trees in photographs, but foliage was too dense and the trees too distant to see source of calls.
