Title: A Visit to Pearson International
Post by: Anonymous on March 25, 2008, 09:17:13 PM

Hi all.  On Sunday I was heading out to a friends place for Easter dinner and on the way decided to swing by the airport to see what might have been flying about.  Sure enough I spotted a Red Tail and an American Kestrel.  Sorry for the quality of the pics - shot through the windshield of the car!

You could technically call it a 'drive by shooting' :)

In which area of the Airport vicinity did you see these wonderful birds?

Thanks for the info, I'll be sure to keep an eye out for him next time I'm out that way.
