ID Quiz - July 16, 2023

It's an American Kestrel!

Note the facial pattern, with double dark marks ("sideburns") on each side of the head (although you can't quite see the second one on its right side). With the blue wings and dark spotting in the flanks, it's a male. And with the dark streaking in the center of the chest, it's a young bird that hatched this year.
