POCOSIN WILDLIFE REFUGE, NORTH CAROLINA

This is my first visit to this site during this fall season. I was able to see two Black Bears, both of which were out of range of my camera setup. There were quite a few Tundra Swans, but no other waterfowl. The highlight of the trip was seeing and photographing an American Kestral, our smallest, and to me, our prettiest hawk. This male was sitting atop a small bush eating a recent catch of a Swallow. The Swallow’s relatives were still in the area and obviously upset. They were dive-bombing the Kestral which eventually made him drop his catch and fly away. I managed to catch a couple of the Swallows as they gave the Hawk a hard time. There was also an Eagle, an adolescent Red-Tailed Hawk, a Northern Harrier, and a few other local birds. Enjoy the pics below
