So today I went to the Sacramento Zoo, where we saw a lot of animals of all sorts. This guy was easily one of my favorites there. He is a Eurasian Hobby, a tiny falcon about the size of a medium sized parakeet. He had all the majestic beauty of a falcon in a mini package, I love him so much. This was my favorite portrait of him that I took.

Wow, incredible detail. How close up to him did you get to take this shot?
I love birds, especially raptors. The Kestrel is a big favorite of mine.
That's gotta be a kestrel.
Smallest of the falcon family, but not the least deadly by any stretch.
