Falco sparverius
A small falcon with beautiful slate blue and rusty brown color pattern, spattered with black spots, and striking black and white vertical bands on the face.
Open field of mostly bare dirt on either side of a creek. Several mesquite and black willow trees are spaced pretty far apart.
The bird sits perched atop the highest point of the tree at dusk looking down over a section of Furneaux Creek undergoing major construction for channel improvements.
