I was leaving the pier (without the Black-headed Gull) when I noticed this little guy perched atop one of the telephone poles http://picasaweb.google.com/mvalencic/LorainHarborKestrel# He gave quite a show as he flew down into the weeds and plucked some large insect which he took back to the top of the pole to 'chew on".
