Hey guys, does anyone remember a while back a Rockethub research project about american kestrels? Well since I’m a tiny little bit bird obsessed, I made a donation to help out, and today I received an email with my little bird’s photo, video and stats~ So well, this is Echo. She’s really talkative apparently. xD

She hatched on May 5, 2012 in a nest box south of Nampa, Idaho.  She was banded on June 1 and fledged a few days later.  Her physical characteristics are as follows:

Wing length: 140 mm

Tail length: 74 mm

Weight: 127 grams

Isn’t she adorable? <3
