Today they turned me loose 1 hour early so I got home before sunset. When I got out of the car, I saw a bird flying over my street calling. It perched on a utility pole between the creek and the holding pond beside Lowes on Polaris Pkwy. I ran inside and grabbed my binoculars so I could get a look at it. It was an American Kestrel.
