I was just walking along Highway #1 in Hantsport when a terrific racket =
made me look up to the top of the nearby trees. A couple of apparently =
recently fledged Kestrels were being encouraged to take short flights by =
the parents. All of them were making a great noise which increased when =
they saw me stop to watch. There were both cavities and nest boxes high =
in the nearby trees so I don't know which they had actually used.

Isn't this unusually late? I would have thought they would be preparing =
for migration by now.
