Freedom
This American Kestrel was trying to keep warm on a cold winter's day in Farmington Bay Utah. I enjoyed watching her hunt, she would take off from this perch and grab a small vole, then land on top of a wooden fence post and eat it. She would then come back over to this perch and clean herself up, ready to go again.
