American Kestrel and His Delectable Meal

While taking pictures of the different herons flying back and forth, out of the corner of our eyes we spotted this American Kestrel on top of a pole. He was busy tearing apart a rodent he had just caught and was not about to leave that delectable meal just because we humans wanted to take a few pics. So he stood quite still and stoic and allowed us to take his photograph. American Kestrels eat mostly insects and other invertebrates, as well as small rodents and birds but from what we could tell whatever he was eating had feet and a tail, we were unable to get a decent shot of the kill but we did get a good look at it through our binoculars.
