American Kestrel male on frosty RabbitbrushAmerican Kestrel male on frosty Rabbitbrush

I know a lot of people are suffering because of the heat of summer so I though I would post an image of a male American Kestrel perched on a frosty Rabbitbrush. It was very chilly that day and I am glad I had my gloves on but even so my finger tips got numb. The background isn’t actually sky, it is the frozen Great Salt Lake. The temps are supposed to be in the low to mid 80’s today, much different than winter in the Salt Lake Valley.

Life is good.
